This is undoubtedly the weaker of the two divisions and, in the hope wind surgery has ironed out a few problems, we’ll take UNCLE PERCY to build on the promise he showed at Worcester last October having fallen on his only subsequent run at Huntingdon. Breaking Ground did win at Wincanton in February and was going well when falling there subsequently. His latest fifth at Hereford gives him every chance in a race like this, though he might have preferred softer ground. Ian Williams has his string in terrific form and it would be no surprise to see Predict A Riot thereabouts while Royal Etiquette has each-way claims from near the foot of the handicap.
