Verdict

Winsley is selected to get the better of Bob The Builder, with Spring Lover and Northern Deal likely to make their presence felt. Winsley caught the eye here in December when rallying to good effect to chase home Nayodabayo, and is taken to get those losses back, having been sent off as favourite that day. Described by trainer Oliver Sherwood as being possibly best fresh and on decent ground, the eight-year-old has plenty going for him today and should go close under Leighton Aspell. Bob The Builder was given a positive ride over track-and-trip last time, and although having more to do now, should again make a bold bid to dominate and can hang on for a place at least. Spring Lover, who faded out of contention over three miles at Fakenham, will be suited by the return this track, having won here in the past, but Northern Deal may find this on the short side and has topweight to boot. He is another that will ensure a decent pace though, and can help set things up for Winsley who looks the percentage call here.
