    Verdict

    MONTANNA has completed a Ffos Las double over 3m, the latest in this grade from 5lb lower, and should have the edge. Fidux won a Class 2 handicap at Market Rasen in October and is only 2lb higher while Rocco very nearly doubled his winning total when just failing to concede William Of Orange 12lb at Southwell. Neville's Cross needs to put his jumping problems behind him but Bbold wasn't beaten far at Ludlow in April after a long absence and isn't out of this.
