Verdict
There is absolutely nothing between Robin's Command and FINAL ASSAULT on their run together at Perth last month but we just fancy Lucinda Russell's novice to come out on top in this stronger heat granted better luck in-running. Authinger and Classic Move could find this on the sharp side, though the latter was quite highly tried over hurdles after winning at Bangor and Catterick last season. It's A Mans World, like Classic Move, makes his chasing bow as does Bright Abbey.
