Verdict

Jonjo O'Neill runs two in this but Mr Shantu had every chance when second at Southwell and still looks a few pounds too high, as does Rolling Maul. Richard Johnson's mount Presence Felt would need to find improvement on his fifth at Ffos Las to figure and Moss On The Mill is climbing the weights though hasn't done much wrong in his last three starts, winning twice. VOLCANIC (NAP) has been steadily returning to form and, though he could have done without a 4lb weight rise, has every chance of picking up the winning thread again here. Low Key hasn't raced since November when he finished tailed off over this trip at Haydock.
