Verdict

Ballyshan deserves to get his head in front following some solid displays but the Nigel Twiston-Davies-trained gelding may have to settle for a minor role with preference for Liathriodisneachta, who gets the vote ahead of Winapenny. The last mentioned would have claims on the form shown at Carlisle two starts ago but seemed not to stay 2m4f at Haydock last time and is far from certain to appreciate today's even longer trip. Nevada Red seemed to stay well enough at Sedgefield last time but needs to improve, while Simon Sherwood's Billesey is potentially of interest but is hard to recommend on all known evidence. Alan King's Born Leader has a long absence to overcome but has to be respected with the stable in good form; however, the vote goes to Liathriodisneachta. Jonjo O'Neill's gelding looked useful when running in bumpers and lost no caste in defeat behind Senorita Rumbalita on his hurdling debut at Folkestone in November. Today's longer trip should suit and Liathriodisneachta gets the nod.
