In depth

Verdict

A selling hurdle over 2m3f in which the choice is the Paul Nicholls-trained Cash On, who gets the vote ahead of Sunset King and Brochrua. The selection started favourite when fourth behind Kingham at Taunton last month. That form certainly looks good enough, with the dangers being Jimmy Frost's Brochrua, a winner here last time out and Sunset King, who was somewhat disappointing behind Young Tot at Exeter last time out. This looks a good opportunity for Cash On to win though and he gets the vote.
