Ramore Will hasn’t raced since third over fences in August of last year but he is something of a course specialist so is certainly worth a market check. Neverbeen To Paris went close on the all-weather at Chelmsford eight days ago but is giving 4lb to MR JACK. A winner here at the start of the year, he looked to be coming to hand when fourth at Lingfield and has been dropped a further pound in the ratings. Where's Tom is interesting making his handicap debut while Bourbali won at Chepstow in October but couldn’t cope with a 7lb rise at Exeter. Methag looks the pick of the remainder.
