Verdict

Carnaross has his first start of the year having won off a 4lb lower mark at Cartmel last season while course regular Copt Hill is another returning from an absence with his course and distance win in 2013 his only success in 32 attempts. Fiddler's Flight arrives out of form but won this last year and scored here again in February so cannot be completely ruled out but MRS GRASS looks the safest option. She was runner-up at Newcastle last week from out of the weights and should make another bold bid in this company.
