Verdict

Soft going probably didn’t suit Compadre at Market Rasen on Boxing Day and he’s better judged on an earlier victory at Huntingdon. Bestwork has regressed since the turn of the year and Vocaliser looked in the handicapper’s grip at Ascot, though is back in the right grade. Cajun Fiddle has been well beaten over fences so far so we’ll take a chance on MINELLA TWEET, who won off a higher mark at Southwell last May and has run fairly well in a couple of previous visits to this track.
