    Verdict

    ASTURIENNE rarely threatened to get to grips with Kerada at Newbury on her chasing bow but kept on well up the straight and finished a long way in front of the useful Sway. She should have learned from that experience and will almost certainly go one better here with a clear round. Mrs Fawlty may need her first run for almost a year and could have a future over fences. She has more scope than Canni Thinkaar, though the latter's best run over the larger obstacles to date came over this C&D in November when finishing ahead of Alldunnandusted. Upham Atom jumped poorly on his chasing debut at Lingfield and will need to be more fluent here if he is to take a hand in the finish.
