In depth

Verdict

Dalcassian Buck, didn't look a true stayer at Huntingdon and looks up against under his penalty. Dat My Horse, winner of a moderate event at Hereford, has more on his plate here. Bumper winner Sparkling Sword, has been found a soft race in which to make his jumping debut. He could well have most to fear from Chater Flair, who will appreciate the stronger handling.
