Verdict

Carli King has scored twice at Leicester this year and showed real determination to see off Lough Coi last time with the remainder in another parish. PRESENTED was possibly a bit fortunate to score at Fakenham, where he made several mistakes. He was raised 13lb but ran well for a long way in the Eider Chase at Newcastle when out of the handicap and can get back to winning ways. Dancing Art was beaten a head in this in 2012 but has only run three times subsequently. He will have found 2m1f much too short at Newcastle in January. Bennys Well ploughed through the mud to score very easily at Sedgefield last month for which he was raised 12lb. He couldn't quite cope with the extra back there a couple of weeks later. Harris looks the main threat as he has stamina to burn as he proved when slamming a poor field at Catterick, for which he's been raised 8lb.
