    Verdict

    Such A Legend has already had six starts over the larger obstacles, being placed three times. He looks vulnerable again against the less-exposed MONSIEUR GIBRALTAR, who only found the potentially-useful Days Of Heaven too strong on his chasing bow at Kempton and was clear of the third. Avidity won three times over hurdles but may need more time over fences judged on his fourth of five at Kelso, where he never look comfortable. Silk Hall was pulled up in that race and has become disappointing while Northern Oscar appears to have a lot to do.
