    Verdict

    Venn Ottery, Cobreces, and Mullensgrove are three against the file;d in this hunter chase and the vote is given to Cobreces. The selection has won his last two races in good style and won well last time when beating Swincombe he again has conditions to suit and despite his big weight he will be hard to beat. Venn Ottery is taking a big drop in class and if he sees out the trip he will be hard to beat but that is a big if and at likely odds he looks worth opposing. Mullensgrove has definite place claims but he is beset with back trouble but if he was on a going day he would not be far away. Of the remainder Executive Park is unexposed and is from a shrewd yard so is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to the in-form Cobreces.
