      Verdict

      THEATREBAR won on his return to action and first run for Dan Skelton over course and distance last year when Tomkevi was a well-beaten sixth. He also scored at Ludlow in February and, though 9lb higher today, can win again. Tomkev's recent success at Hexham came over fences while Ink Master and Apterix are better over the larger obstacles. Vancouver won at Uttoxeter in May but has failed to justify market support in both starts since.
