    Verdict

    Mi Odds rolled back the years with a game victory last time and should go close again this afternoon, however we will take a chance with Western roots, Penwell Hill could prove best of the outsiders. The selection couldn't have been anymore impressive when comfortably beating Danzare over course and distance last time. He came through on the bit before going on to score by two and a half lengths, a similar effort today should suffice. Mi Odds came with a late rattle to beat Danelor last time, his first success in almost two years. With his enthusiasm restored another bold run can be expected. Penwell Hill looks on a very decent mark and can be given a great chance on his Southwell form in March. Nimello is not a straightforward character but has claims on the pick of his form, however Western Roots won with plenty in hand last time and can make it back to back victories
