Verdict

Nigel Twiston-Davies usually targets this meeting with some of his lesser lights and Blue Flight will be fancied to give him a flying start in this as the five-year-old has shown promise in both starts to date over timber. However, two of his rivals boast similar form and Nando will likely appreciate the step up in trip after failing to justify favouritism over 2m at Ayr in February. But LOVELY SCHTUFF is just preferred as the winning pointer chased home a couple of useful novices at Carlisle on his hurdles bow when the first three pulled well clear. 2.00
