Cave Top, also engaged at Huntingdon, won on faster going over fences at Southwell in November and BLASTER YEATS also looks better suited to today’s underfoot conditions. The latter wasn’t at his best last time but went very close at Wetherby on Boxing Day and should be in the mix with a similar effort today. The remainder are harder to recommend but The Some Dance Kid should have come on for a recent outing while Voodoo Doll finished closer at Cheltenham in November and River Frost won over fences here last summer.
