Verdict

CATHOLIC HILL finished some way adrift of Chestnut Ben at Newton Abbot in September but Mark Gillard's grey improved on that effort in subsequent runs at Chepstow and Kempton and enjoys a big turnaround in the weights today. In a low-key opener, he gets the vote ahead of Doctored, third on his reappearance in a better race at Plumpton and a regular around here. Whitcombe Spirit has never really taken to hurdling, but Quam Celerrime was beaten less than a length at Uttoxeter on his latest start and is only 3lb higher now.
