Verdict

A small but competitive field goes to post for this handicap chase in which all can be given chances on there best form. Deep Water won well on his return to chasing when defeating Bit O Magic in good style at Market Rasen. However this looks a tougher contest and he represents no value at likely odds. Time Of Flight was a fair fourth behind Nosam at this track last time out but he was doing all his best work at the finish and the step back down to the minimum trip is not sure to suit. Aelred and Minster Glory were well behind Deep Water last time and although they are better off at the weights they will nee to improve significantly to gain revenge. Of the remainder Sharpastrizam has dropped to a handy mark and the faster the ground the better for him.
