Verdict
On The Case is still 6lb higher than for his only victory and is hard to predict. But Rosquero will be fancied to go well, especially if Runswick Relax boosts the form of his Catterick second in the opener. COURT OF LAW's run in a hurdle on heavy ground at Uttoxeter can be ignored as he'd earlier finished third at Catterick off a higher mark. This looks a good opportunity as Home For Tea hasn't been seen since pulling up at Cartmel in June.
