Verdict
Zamparelli, beaten in a hurdle last time, is 9lb higher than when successful at Market Rasen and this trip is likely to stretch his stamina. Souriyan may need another run while Keltus has been running in hunter chases. Mercers Court still looks out of sorts but Mr Mafia has a chance at the weights. GARDINERS HILL is a strong stayer and arrives off the back of a victory over 3m2f at Uttoxeter, where he reversed earlier running with You Say What. He has a penalty but could be too strong for these in the latter stages.
