Verdict

AMUSE ME will be all the rage following his easy win at Towcester as the handicapper seems certain to raise him by more than the 7lb penalty that he carries here. The gelding, who was highly tried in bumpers, has taken time to find his feet over hurdles but began his handicap career on a lowly mark as a result and is hard to get away from despite the differing nature of this track. Slam hasn't lived up to expectations over obstacles given the level of ability that he showed on the level but he didn't run too badly on his return from a summer break and could go well if building on that. Sonic Anthem has each-way claims whilst Babilu and Lean Burn must also enter calculations if allowed to line up having run well at Uttoxeter on Friday.
