Verdict

Irish raider Akadyr has failed to score in 19 starts over timber and doesn't look particularly well treated. It's impossible to know what to make of Sir Mozart, who showed nothing over hurdles at the beginning of his career and has been sprinting on the Flat. The market is best watched but this is such a poor race that he could quite easily have the call here. Royal Entourage ran well at Doncaster in November and was outclassed next time so he must be in with a shout while Skenakilla Cross has shown a glimmer of ability and makes her handicap debut. CATAWOLLOW must have quick ground as she demonstrated at Leicester in November and, with conditions likely to be in her favour, she's taken to gain her third success over timber.
