Verdict

Placed over fences last time, Rainy City can race off the same mark as when second over hurdles at Newton Abbot before that. Sirop De Menthe won in soft ground at Ffos Las recently and Blue Rambler returned a cosy winner at Wetherby, though has a 9lb hike in the weights to contend with here. SOME KINDA LAMA looks the most progressive having followed a maiden hurdle victory with a comfortable four-length success over 3m1f at Hereford - Charlie Mann’s charge should make another bold bid in this. Arctic Gold should be sharper for last month’s return at Cheltenham but Fingal Bay cut little ice back over timber at the same meeting.
