Verdict
Backfromthecongo is a durable and reliable handicap chaser who acts on all ground and should run his race here. However, he may find this a little sharp on good ground, whilst Kilmore West has returned from an absence in pretty decent form, running well enough on soft/heavy ground. Thomas Flint takes off a valuable 7lb on the latter and he should go well having previously scored on good to firm. Allerford Jack and Chandlers Cross arrive in fair form from the pointing arena and Our Flora has claims on her latest improved effort here behind Qualypso D'Allier. The choice is BENNYS WELL though as he comes on from a C&D win last month on only his second start over fences, is raised an acceptable 5lb and should have further progress to come.
