Verdict
Into Overdrive makes his debut under Rules and Papa Tango Charlyis best watched following a lengthy absence while Tamar Bridge had only four rivals in a Haydock bumper and all those behind have been beaten since. The three previous winners may fight out the finish with easy Hereford scorer BALLYBEGG just preferred to Frimeur De Lancray, who eventually landed the odds at Catterick but was fortunate to do so with a clear leader falling at the last. Ulverston hasn’t done much wrong since successful at Uttoxeter in the autumn so can’t be ignored
