      Verdict

      Rathlin continues to struggle and was pulled up along with Indian Voyage at Wetherby last time but the latter is not out of this off his current mark. Nautical Twilight looked beaten when falling at Newcastle and Monbeg River has been raised a further 5lb for finishing second over these fences. Perth winner Lord Of Drums has something to prove now having been well beaten off his current mark last time but UBALTIQUE is taken to fare better on the back of a recent win at Catterick with a conditional's allowance negating 5lb of an 8lb rise in the weights.
