Verdict
It's two years since Dakota Grey won a race and he was on the retreat when falling at the last at Newcastle. TOMAHAWK WOOD (NAP) won this a year ago on heavy going and is back on the same mark. He ran quite well for a long way in a better race than this at Carlisle last time and should be spot-on to complete the race double. Read'em And Weep has only shown moderate form in novice company and makes his handicap debut and Lucinda Russell reaches for a visor for Haul Us In, whose jumping has let her down over hurdles and fences.
