Verdict

BARABOY crops up in his turn and his latest run behind the in-form Bollin LIne puts him in here with clear claims, especially with Thomas Greatrex's 7lb taken into account. He's not one for maximum faith but race conditions do appear in his favour and a repeat of his latest effort would see him home. Grams And Ounces is the obvious threat as well as the likely each-way option for many a punter as he's solid and reliable under both codes and has obvious claims with Mikey Hamil claiming a valuable 5lb. The shortlist is completed by Yasir, still relatively unexposed over timber and a really fluent winner here last time. He's up 7lb but still has every chance under Niall Madden. Druid's Diamond is lightly-raced and one to note in the market.
