Verdict

ASO wasn't disgraced under a penalty at Sandown after winning easily at Warwick and can give the weight away to Relic Rock. Brian Ellison's charge was a smart bumper but will need to do better over hurdles than when beaten by the exposed Glingerburn when odds-on at Doncaster. Simply The West won easily at Bangor last month and may be improving but Dare To Endeavour is having a confidence-booster after losing his way over fences and Horsehill will do better over the larger obstacles in time.
