Verdict

Satanic Beat showed a glimpse of his old form when second at Southwell last month. Shalianzi runs his best races here while it's about time Breaking Bits was getting his head back in front. Crimson Ark may need this, however, and Linguine and Sir Dylan appear to have lost their way. WORKBENCH is still 4lb higher than for his only win over hurdles two year ago but he's rated 136 over fences so it will feel like he's running loose here off a mark of 119.
