Verdict

Fast Moon made most at Wolverhampton last month but couldn't quite hold on though that was his first start since August. Arsonist has disappointed since landing a novices' race at Leicester in August but No Day Never has shown ability and can get into contention. Deputy didn't enjoy heavy conditions when well supported at Haydock but Sweet Bertie has shown little since scoring at Wolverhampton in November. In an open race, a chance is taken with ASK THE WIND, who has found 6f too short in her two starts this season after two very good runs over this trip in October. Some rain would aid the cause of Typical Man, a winner on soft ground at Doncaster.
