    Verdict

    Always Bold appears top have reverted to type after a couple of wins over hurdles at Fontwell, while it doesn't take much to knock Douryna out of her stride. Daneva usually finds at least one too good and Babe Heffron isn't the force of old, while there are also question marks against Plunkett and Jigsaw Dancer at present. Cabinet Minister looks to be running into form, however, finishing second at Folkestone last month and Niceonefrankie was third on his chasing debut at Ludlow but this can go to SPACE MISSION. Lightly-raced, he made previous winner Wood Yer pull out all the stops at Huntingdon on Boxing Day and Noel Fehily takes over the reins from a conditional today.
