Verdict

The majority are in decent heart and all have had a recent run so there are no fitness issues - all of which should produce a competitive spectacle. Phoebus Lescribaa returns to fences but has topweight to contend with after only a couple of starts at the chasing game. Game Line may need to drop a few more pounds to get his head in front whereas KHAIRAGASH has been left on an unchanged mark after a respectable runner-up effort the last day. He goes well for Lucy Turner and should be in the shake-up. Oksana makes this chasing debut in handicap company and is interesting, likewise Mac Cennetig. The consistent Picknick Park is an each-way option.
