Verdict

Three last-time winners clash in an interesting little heat whilst Lord Of Drums would also be a major consideration if able to recapture the best of his 2013 form. Cara Court stuck on well to score last time but all five career successes have been shared out between Catterick and Sedgefield. SUDSKI STAR has only faced the starter on three occasions over fences but showed a good attitude to justify favouritism when outbattling Eduard at Kelso latest. He should have more to offer over the larger obstacles and is just preferred to Pamak D'Airy. In contrast to the selection, the topweight is having his fiftieth race over fences and can be expected to run his usual game race.
