Verdict

Rateable Value won this last year and can go close again as he's only 2lb higher, while River Indus also scored at this track last year and could figure on his return to action. Rigadin De Beauchene beat the re-opposing Magot De Grugy at Hereford before disappointing last time but the lightly-raced MORTIMERS CROSS makes more appeal, despite an 11lb rise for last month's win over these fences. Not So Sure Dick has been raised 3lb for finishing second at Wincanton last time but that came in better company than this. George Baker's charge would go very close here on that evidence but did have an alternative engagement at Kempton yesterday.
