    Verdict

    Uncle Alastair has been hard to train but has won over hurdles around here, though the drying ground may not be ideal. Grand Mogul was pulled up when returning from a lengthy break at Exeter but should strip fitter today, though we’ll stick with CASTLE ROBIN who is seeking a third win of the campaign and still looks fairly treated. Bushypark has disappointed the last twice but Fern Hill is back in the right grade after contesting a Grade 2 at Ascot and Tallow For Coal didn’t handle heavy going at Lingfield last month.
