Verdict
Corston Joker may have been flattered by his win last time, and looks one to take on. Rusty Fellow will stay every yard of this trip and looks the one to beat, after his game display at Huntingdon. There should not be that much between him, Hatcham Boy and Wrekengale on that running, but he looks the more straightforward ride, and should confirm the form.
