Verdict

WAYUPINTHESKY was always travelling well under Harry Bannister when scoring at Kelso 10 days ago. It's difficult to see either third Darsi Dancer or fourth Mister D reversing that form here and the improving eight-year-old should have too much for recent point-to-points winners Monbeg, Royal Chatelier and Railway Dillon. Master Butcher has proved consistent between the flags but also has plenty on his plate here.
