    Verdict

    Bad Boy Du Pouldu was just denied at Fontwell 10 days ago and is only a pound higher so must have a good chance of going one better. Ffos Las winner Court Duty bids to defy a penalty but has a bit more on his plate today. Wenceslaus is something of a course specialist while Le Coeur Net will be helped by his rider’s claim, though ended the last campaign in disappointing finish. DARLING ALKO could be a welcome winner for rookie handler Toby Bulgin as he remains unexposed and will handle today’s going as well as any of his rivals.
