In depth
Verdict
A wide open contest rounds off Proceedings and many have chances on there best form. However we will take a chance on Accepting. The gelding from the John Mackie won well when defeating Kings Linen last time under similar conditions and although he has risen in the weights he will be hard to beat. Hallyards Gael has been in good form of late over fences but he has never won off a mark this high over hurdles before. Balisteros is better known for his efforts between the flags but he could have been let in lightly here and he could go well at a big price. Political Sox is another that could go well but his best efforts of late have come with much more cut in the ground. Of the remainder Bergamo has dropped to a handy mark and is from a yard in form so he is worth a cautionary look in the market.
