    Verdict

    It will have to be taken on trust that Jonjo O'Neill's recent Hereford winner Charge It will stay this longer trip but he is far from certain to do so and a safer bet may be LYSTER, who gets the verdict ahead of Present. The selection represents trainer David Evans and comes into this on the back of a decent effort when chasing home Jam Packed on soft ground at Stratford last time but he is equally effective on fast ground and is a proven stayer. Midnight Gold has shown improved form over fences of late but disappointed on his return to hurdles at Bangor last time so he looks best watched now, while Tim Vaughan's Canndar is less exposed than most of these but does need to improve on all known form to trouble the judge. Truly Fruitful faces no easy task under his big weight for what he has actually achieved and of more interest may be Present, who has shown improved form of late. Plenty of these have chances in a moderate contest but Lyster has arguably the best and he gets the verdict.
