In depth
Verdict
Dunbar gained his only victory in 28 starts under Rules on this track though that was over fences. Walkinthewoods won a two mile handicap at Chepstow in October and his recent placed efforts have been at 2m3f though he's never proved he stays this far. ROGER RAREBIT has no problems with trip or ground and though a bit disappointing at Hereford last time looks likely to get into contention and gets the vote. Bert Wilson hadn't shown much before scoring at Plumpton for which he's been raised 4lb while Justshortofabubble has run poorly since a close second at Taunton last March.
