      Verdict

      Allavina found little in the closing stages when runner-up at Fontwell and is fitted with additional headgear. She should be in the mix once again but FLOATING ROCK (NAP) makes more appeal as he’s won four times over hurdles and made a promising debut over fences when beaten only a length at Hexham last time. Mark Walford’s charge gets the vote given Glan Y Gors, Earth Spirit and Glacier Fox are all struggling for form.
