Verdict

ROBYNDZONE has now two of his three starts over fences having scored at Bangor on his reappearance. He’s been raised 10lb for that but Paddy Brennan could afford to ease him down in the closing stages and he looks worth sticking with. Pride Of Parish made a winning return from a lengthy absence when scoring at Market Rasen on his debut for Lawney Hill and can figure again but Thomas Shelby is preferred off his current mark after finishing second at Uttoxeter. Shady Oaks has slipped down the weights and steps up in trip while Alexander The Grey and Fr Humphrey should both be sharper for recent outings having won their penultimate starts.
