In depth

Verdict

A fairly competitive heat with a number of in-form rivals in opposition including Bit Of Minster who ran his best race over fences at Hexham last time and looks fairly treated while Border Burn ran above expectations in a hunters chase at the same venue and may do even better with the aid of first-time blinkers. King Bavard also shaped well at Musselburgh in February and should go well off a similar mark but Reflective Way needs to improve his jumping to figure in the finish under a big weight.
