In depth

Verdict

A moderate contest with several disappointing types on view. Something Dandy has plenty of experience over fences and may be good enough in this. Jorodama King has at least managed to win a novice chase, but that was as bad a race as you are likely to see and he looks to have a hopeless task giving weight away, despite the assistance of the champion. Garolsa and Athleague Guest should fight out the places.
