Verdict

Hansupfordetroit went up 10lb for scoring at Uttoxeter in December and has been struggling from his new mark. Black Franks Angel has never won under Rules nor has Sounds Of Italy while The Lion Dancer, who ran out at Towcester on his penultimate start, was well beaten over hurdles here subsequently. GENERAL GIRLING (NAP) won a handicap at this level at Lingfield before an even better run when narrowly beaten in a Wincanton Class 4 so he'll be difficult to beat in that sort of form.
