Verdict

Drinks Interval couldn’t confirm earlier running at Newton Abbot with The Unit on worse terms last month but Colin Tizzard’s mare has taken well to fences. Jacks Last Hope briefly made a race of it with Beat That at Southwell last week but is another carrying a penalty. SKY PIRATE has already won a point-to-point as well as a couple of hurdle races at Worcester. He should be even more effective over the larger obstacles and gets the vote here. Redemption Song has also won between the flags and over hurdles so shouldn’t be ignored.
