Verdict

Reve beat a subsequent winner at Southwell in November but Forgot To Ask is proving hard to place this season and Ami Desbois is having a first run in 11 months. Legends Gold made a winning start over fences and would have gone close had she not fallen next time at Uttoxeter but she was never travelling last time at Warwick. MR CLARKSON was still in front when over-jumping and unseating his rider at the second-last at Taunton. He’s been rather harshly raised 3lb but might still be well treated on his best form. Fagan was just behind a subsequent winner when third over course and distance last month and looks the danger.
