Verdict
Next Sensation was in the lead when falling three out at Cartmel and though that emphasised his jumping problems these fences are not difficult so he should make a bold bid for compensation. Miss Tenacious has struggled since going up 9lb for scoring at Warwick but had dropped to a more lenient mark on her latest start and wasn't beaten far. OWEN NA VIEW (NAP) gained his fourth career victory at Worcester in a similar grade to this and a 4lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent a follow-up. He had Canicallyouback just over a length back in third and should confirm the form but Enjoy Responsibly seems to do better on quicker ground.
