Verdict

TED BACH won here on soft going in February and could figure again if fully wound-up. Howlongisafoot won over fences at Uttoxeter earlier this month but probably isn’t as well treated over hurdles. Snippetydoodah and Itsaboutime are track and trip winner who will handle conditions so also go on the shortlist but Flashdanza and Good News need to show a bit more.
