    Verdict

    Muckamore has only made the frame once in six tries over fences but that was a victory at Wetherby in November. BALLINSKER couldn’t match the finishing speed of Docte Dina’s stablemate Fantastic Lady at Warwick last month but looks to be on a fair mark at present and Isobel Williams takes off 5lb again. Sam Barton had useful form over hurdles but he has been a big disappointment over the larger obstacles so far.
