Verdict

Olly Murphy sets a poser here by saddling both the penalised General Custard and the less-exposed Three County's, who showed promise at Warwick last month. The former just gets the nod with his rider’s claim taking care of the extra but WAR BRIGADE won over 1m4f at Newbury in October and was lightly-raced on the Flat - he wouldn’t need to be a world-beater to make a winning start over timber. Soldier Of Love was beaten more than 30 lengths when third at Bangor so needs more.
