Verdict

Time Is Tickin didn't get far back under Rules here nine days ago and Lady From Geneva was pulled up over hurdles here last month, though may have needed that run. Milgen Bay has run 17 times on good ground but has yet to record a victory and may again find conditions too quick. Billy Two Tongues made a winning start over fences at Uttoxeter but was put up 12lb for that and is another who would have preferred more give in the going description. FOR 'N' AGAINST (NAP) was a decent hurdler and has only run three times over the larger obstacles. He's not raced since November but fitness is rarely a problem for one from his yard and he should go well.
