Verdict

Marmas, a winner over 2m on the Flat, showed promise on his hurdles bow at Wetherby and should be open to further improvement. But KILLALA QUAY is difficult to get away from having won easily at Aintree - he can defy his penalty. Rearrange showed ability on the Flat in France and should leave her Catterick run behind in time with Hexham third Just Fabulous among the pick of the remainder.
