Verdict

Cornish Sett was going well enough before falling on his reappearance here last month and he has to be respected but stable companion LEADING ATTRACTION has an obvious chance and gets the vote to give Paul Nicholls another winner at Wincanton with Trigger The Light rated the pick of the remainder. The selection is less exposed than his rivals after just four starts, should be open to plenty more improvement and he looks well treated for his debut in a handicap. Colin Tizzard's Leading Authority has shown a consistent level of form since being put over fences and he has to be considered but he may be a shade high in the weights at present, while Tom George's Island Flyer has more to do than when successful at Newbury last time off a 10lb higher mark. Oliver Sherwood's Eric's Charm, a narrow winner at Perth when last seen in April, faces no easy task giving weight way all round and of more interest may be Alan King's Trigger The Light, who looked to be going the right way over fences when last seen and lack of a recent run need not be of concern with the yard's horses in such good form. Leading Attraction looks open to plenty of improvement though and he is taken to make a winning return. (Nick Millard)
