Verdict
Belami Des Pictons and Kaki De La Pree are penalised for their respective wins at Newbury and Worcester. The former has the more recent form and is preferred of that pair but ARCTIC GOLD looks to have every chance on these terms. He was still in contention when unseating at Hereford at the start of the month and a clear round should see him bang there at the finish. Dig Deeper had posted a couple of promising efforts before failing to complete at Hereford and has the beating of both Kris Spin, also entered at Newbury, and Granit Man.
