Verdict

Tom George has won this three times in the last seven years and has an excellent strike rate at this meeting. BRANDON HILL is back over his best trip and has had wind surgery since a disappointing effort over 2m4f at Kempton. An habitual front-runner, his rider takes off a handy 7lb and he’ll take some catching if allowed an easy lead. Nicky Richards had several entries at the four-day stage and relies on Chidswell, who usually makes the frame. Allysson Monterg still has scope over fences and is not without a chance while veteran Jet Master is seeking a fourth course win. Uhlan Bute took advantage of a tumbling mark at Ludlow earlier this month but has gone back up 9lb.
