      Verdict

      Question marks over most but KALAHARRY is reliable and solid. He was fortunate last time when Treshnish fell when clear at Hexham, but the latter has won since to give the form a healthy sheen and the selection will be suited by the trip and forecast conditions. O'Hanrahan Bridge has disappointed on his last three starts so is best watched, hence the consistent Stop Talking being seen as next best on just a third start over fences, although he does return from a 165-day break. Fil D'ariane was a well-beaten third at Warwick last time but that was his chasing bow and he can be expected to come on for the experience and get involved.
