Verdict

There was a lot to like about the manner of Backcraft's victory at Wetherby last time and he looks well up to the task of giving weight to modest opposition. Renzo ran in snatches on his most recent start and whilst clearly having ability might not be suited by this small field. Distant Storm looks to have too much to do, but Apadi ran well at Worcester last time and in receipt of plenty of weight could be in the shake-up.
