Verdict
Next Sensation showed a glimmer of his old form behind Crookstown at Haydock earlier this month but is still looking a few pounds too high, though is 7lb better off with the winner. Foundation Man won at Leicester and Doncaster in December but this will be his first run this year and No Likey, from last year’s winning stable, seems to have jumping issues at present. ONE TERM is a previous course winner who is well treated on past form. He only weakened on the run-in over hurdles at Ffos Las recently and looks the value in this.
