Verdict

Cnoc Sion has disappointed in both starts since winning over this trip at Bangor in October whereas Wetherby scorer LADY MASTER bounced back from a poor run at Warwick to finish a close-up fourth at Huntingdon last time and is the one to beat on that form. Having won a point-to-point, Western Morning may fare better over fences than hurdles and a similar comment applies to Black Anthem. Muilean N Madog was due to run yesterday at Plumpton.
