Verdict

Renard blotted his copybook when refusing at Carlisle on his reappearance, but made amends with a cosy win in soft ground at Chepstow last week. However, Another Trump looks likely to handle today's going better, though he's 10lb higher than his win at Market Rasen in June. Lidar blundered his way around Fontwell on last month's chasing debut and ZORRO DE LA VEGA was well beaten at Stratford last month, but that came only six days after a convincing win on quick ground at Kempton and Sara Humphrey's charge is given a chance to prove his latest running all wrong. Hellfire Club was engaged to run at Southwell yesterday.
