Verdict

Rear Admiral looked all over the winner after the jumping the last at Carlisle earlier this month but was mugged on the line by Ghost Of A Smile. He's 3lb higher here and looks in the handicapper's grip. INK MASTER (NAP) could be another for the Hobbs/Johnson partnership as he looks ready to open his account over fences following a close-up third at Kempton. Gallic Warrior was engaged here yesterday but Valseur Du Granval is interesting having been placed in both starts so far over the larger obstacles. Tomorrow's Legend was a huge price when beating four rivals at Carlisle but has been rewarded with a 13lb rise in the weights.
