In depth

Verdict

Cross The Highman is narrowly preferred here to Shared Account and Lady of Scarvagh. The selection was a fair second behind Civil Gent at Market Rasen last time out. He had previously run well on this track when finishing second behind Meehan and if he can maintain his recent level of form then he should take all the beating. Shared Account was a fair second over fences here last time and he had previously won a selling hurdle in decent style at Newton Abbot. This is tougher but he look the most likely of the two runners from the Evan Williams yard and he has to be considered. Lady of Scarvagh is a course and distance winner and she will be suited by the drop in trip after failing to get home over further at Stratford last time. Ilikehimmac is from a leading yard and is one to note in the market but for the winner we will stick with Cross The Highman.
