Verdict

Tom Costalot improved through out last season and his last run when second behind Trouble Ahead gives him every chance in this contest he goes on any ground and runs well fresh and will be hard to beat. Flat Top looks the main danger he is well in on his best form but he is prone to the odd error and the stables runners have generally needed their first runs this season. Stone Cold is also one to consider he was a good winner at Market Rasen on fast ground last season and he is well weighted on his best form as long as the ground is not to soft. Die Fledermaus could also go well but he ran as if in the handicappers grip when fourth behind Derring Bridge last time. Donnybrook and Mulkev Prince are both out of form at the moment.
