Verdict
Renardeau posted a better effort at Kempton last time while Oslo has been thereabouts over 1m2f lately. Notation makes a quick reappearance after going close in a lower grade at Southwell while Combine scored over track and trip last month and gets a change of headgear after subsequently finishing behind HE’S A KEEPER (NAP). The latter duly obliged when sent off favourite over course and distance recently and a 4lb rise may not be enough to anchor Tom Dascombe’s grey given he’s tumbled down the weights this year.
