    Verdict

    This looks a decent contest for the time of year. Potterman beat a previous winner by 10 lengths at Worcester and looks a useful recruit. The runner-up that day was trained by Dan Skelton and he has two in this. No Hassle Hoff is the one with chasing experience but Harry Skelton prefers the returning Notnow Seamus, who was in good form over hurdles last year. LITTERALE CI is also returning from a break but she runs well fresh and has her mare’s allowance in her favour here on ground that will suit. Included has the more recent form and could also figure if her jumping stands up.
