Verdict

Jonjo O’Neill runs two in this with Tedham, highly tried in novice events so far, making more appeal than Irish import Bhutan. Magoo quickly reverts to hurdles having fallen on his chasing bow at Sandown while Wallace Spirit is steadily improving. Wicked Willy was a good third last time at Cheltenham but may find this too short. Tight Call and Earlofthecotswolds are interesting stepping into handicap company but DARK EPISODE is even less exposed. The champion deserts Bradford Bridge in favour of the Leicester winner, who should have plenty more to offer.
