Verdict

There will be no hanging about here with the headstrong Marodima sure to go off at the head of affairs having won very easily over hurdles at Towcester nine days ago. C&D winner Baseball Ted is starting to look well treated again though has something to find with Plumpton second Hellfire Club on a line through the prolific Amaury De Lusignan and will also struggle to overturn Sandown running with NOVIKOV and Quipe Me Posted. David Evans' charge gets the vote as he's lightly raced over fences and appeals as the type who will relish a fast pace. This is a big ask for Mister Stickler under top weight however.
