      Verdict

      Cool Valley is now 0-13 over fences and was 13 lengths behind HENRY’S JOY (NAP) when the top weight stayed on into second behind John Williams over track and trip last month. The latter probably ran up to that form when third at Sedgefield subsequently and looks the one to beat. Fortunes Hiding switches to fences after just three runs over hurdles and will be a threat if taking to the larger obstacles. Benny's Secret also has a squeak and is preferred to The Road Home and Buyer Beware.
