Verdict

THE DELLERCHECKOUT had a run at Barbury in December to blow away the cobwebs. He’s won three times between the flags and twice over fences so looks the one to be on. Ennistown was out of his depth and jumped poorly at Haydock last month but should make his presence felt in this grade. Djin Conti was also pulled up last month but has won three times under Rules so looks best of the rest.
