Verdict

Coach Lane would have made short work of these a couple of years ago but has been on a downward curve for a while now. The Grey One always seems to find at least one too good, as was the case at Fontwell last Saturday, while Captain Dash has fallen in his last two starts and Western Pride hasn't been seen since pulling up in this very race 12 months ago. CHILBURY HILL is hardly a confident selection as he finished well beaten when favourite at Newton Abbot last month but his earlier third over this C&D would give him every chance today.
