Verdict

URBANIST won a chase off this mark at Exeter last week. He did win over hurdles when trained in Ireland and Richard Newland’s charge is the one to beat in this. Present Destiny could be interesting at a working man’s price while Sheila's Fancy starts off in handicaps off a lowly mark. King Cool and Lee Side Lady are course winners but Realt Or is hard to catch right and Goodnitesweetheart has a long absence to overcome.
