Verdict
Scamperdale has the benefit of Serena Brotherton to do the steering but his latest third came over a shorter trip. Overrule and veteran Dunaskin are better on the Fibresand but nine-year-olds Ahlawy and Carlton Scroop are both previous C&D winner, though the latter has plenty to find at the weights in this. SIR BOSS hinted at a revival in a handicap at Chester 10 days ago, albeit beaten more than 15 lengths. His habit of starting slowly could be an advantage from his high draw and he gets a tentative vote as Simon Walker's mount King Fingal was most disappointing over hurdles during the winter.
