Verdict

Musical Wedge was entered at Wincanton yesterday having been withdrawn from a similar race at Stratford on Saturday. Mic's Delight jumped poorly and was well beaten at Newbury on Friday and it's hard to have much faith in Arthur's Pass nowadays but Sin Bin is probably better than he showed when pulled up here in November and has been second in a jumper's bumper since. BROWNS BROOK has been raised a further 10lb since failing to land his hat-trick at Leicester but this looks a weak contest and Venetia Williams' charge may be capable of a return to winning ways as Duneen Point may need this.
