Verdict

Lawney Hill is adept at transforming other trainer's cast-offs so it would be no surprise to see a forward showing from once-useful chaser Andrew Nick. But preference is still for SAINT LUKE, who ran his best race so far over hurdles over C&D on Boxing Day and now looks poised to open his account. Points winner Rathnaroughy could also figure now with Tim Vaughan but Al Shababiya has been well beaten in all three runs over timber and Inkberrow Rose has been well below par since returning from a lay-off.
