Verdict

Plenty of chances here and we will give Radcliffe a chance to follow up at the expense of Twisted Logic and Banjo Hill. While it would be unwise to get too carried away with a victory in a weak race at Plumpton; he did win decisively and is off a handy mark at present. Twisted Logic has won around here before and loves fast ground. He seems to reserve his best efforts for Cheltenham these days and should run another fair race. Banjo Hill was in good heart at the back end of the season. He blew up in the closing stages of his reappearance effort at Huntingdon and should strip fitter. Cold Encounter landed a three-runner event at Kempton. His jumping was responsible for that victory and he is likely to be well supported on this occasion. Ice Cool Lad faces a tough task from out of the handicap. Radcliffe stays long distances like her namesake and we will side with the equine version on this occasion.
