Verdict

REELWILL is only a pound higher than when successful in this contest 12 months ago following a similar lay-off. He has a lot more scope than 2008 winner Leopold and a follow up looks likely. Investment Affair has claims if able to reproduce the form of his second at Uttoxeter in March but Galley Slave hasn't shown a great deal since winning over hurdles at Market Rasen in June. Grenoli has questions to answer after pulling up at Uttoxeter, while the fact that Hopeand is fit from the Flat is about the only thing in his favour.
