    Verdict

    The veteran Cody Wyoming gained the latest of his six victories over fences at Fakenham last month but a bad mistake put paid to his chances back there a couple of weeks later. CLOUDY BEACH has had very little racing for his age but has still managed to win a point, a hurdle and score twice over fences. His latest run, when second in a better class race at Lingfield, gives him an obvious chance here. Jarlath has won seven times in his career and doubled his winning score over fences with a battling performance at Warwick. He would have to be considered on that form but he's untested on this sort of going. Native Robin was beaten a distance in that latter event but that wasn't his form as he showed when ploughing through the mud on a return visit on New Year's Eve so conditions will be very much in his favour. Fergal Mael Duin won a handicap over slightly further on this track the last time he dropped into this grade so he's another to consider in a tight handicap.
