Verdict
Cawthorne has been hit with an 11lb rise for making a winning chasing debut at Sedgefield and is taking on better opposition here. TARDREE won between the flags for previous connections and has done nothing but improve since joining Laura Morgan’s yard. He should progress again now tackling fences and is preferred to Zuckerberg, who might not enjoy the drop in trip, and Warwick winner Larch Hill, who was beaten off a lower mark at Stratford last time.
