Verdict

Reverse Swing looks to have the class and form to win this seller with Desert Spa and Donatus all worthy of mention. With the Champ on board Reverse Swing looks a cut above the rest. His win in similar company at Worcester last time out reads well and is worth siding with again. Desert Spa has a lot of weight to carry with his seven pound penalty after his recent Hereford win, but with a seven pound claiming jockey on board enters calculations as does Donatus who has not been seen out since winning a chase at Uttoxeter this time last year. But for the winner we return to Reverse Swing.
