Verdict

Easier condition will suit Market Rasen third Graystown and Walkin In The Rain still had every chance when falling at the second last over track and trip last time. Sword Of Fate won in a higher grade at Cartmel and the fourth has franked the form since but we’ll taken a chance on the fitness of WRITE IT DOWN as Jonjo O’Neill’s six-year-old was progressing nicely over fences last year before being pulled up at Warwick on New Year’s Eve when something was clearly amiss. Beautiful Ben won off a higher mark here last summer so is not dismissed out of hand.
