Manofthemoment opened his account over fences with last month’s success at Warwick and should still be in the mix despite an 8lb rise. But OSCAR WILDE (NAP) found only one too good in a tougher chase than this at Market Rasen on Boxing Day when clear of the rest and it could be the turn of Sue Smith’s charge today with any further progress. Ringaringarosie landed a double over these fences at the end of last year but struggled back here last time while Mine's A Pint is expected to do better back over a longer trip with last month’s outing over 2m at Newbury under his belt.
