Verdict

Giant O'Murchu's run behind Lucy's Legend at Newton Abbot in August clearly wasn't his true form and better is anticipated here after a break. Veteran Mibleu has been enjoying something of a revival while James Cowley takes 7lb off Shooters Wood, though the top weight disappointed last time. Tri Nations could sneak into a place off a low weight but a couple of runs over hurdles may have woken up AMUSE ME and he can bounce back to winning ways on this quickish ground under McCoy. Up To The Mark alternates between hurdles and fences to good effect but is probably high enough in the weights at present and may needs a bit further nowadays.
