Verdict

Dot Or Feather won on his chasing bow at Fakenham and is probably capable of further improvement. This isn't a strong handicap and he could easily go close here. Carrickmines has lost his way and needs a strong gallop while Cast Cada is difficult to recommend on this season's form. O Crotaigh came unstuck at Wetherby last time but SOUND ACCORD appears to be running into a bit of form and, a couple of pounds lower than when third at Chepstow in January, can end his long losing run here. De Forgotten Man took a heavy fall on his chasing debut and may be best watched today.
