      Verdict

      Bertenbar won in lesser company at Fontwell last month but is 10lb higher and probably worth taking on here. Extra Bold is a fairly reliable sort at this level and comes here off the back of a decent second at Fontwell but Crystal Prince always seems to find at least one too good while Douryna has become expensive to follow. Lepido is often placed but rarely wins while Back Bob Back and Turbo Shandy are both returning from a break so this can go to MISTER MATT. He travelled strongly for a long way when third over this C&D last month and races off a 3lb lower mark today.
