In depth
Verdict
Woodwind down has been in fair form of late, he again ran well when second at Sedgefield last time out behind Mumaris and this looks a slightly easier contest so he should go close. Hernrianjames is best when the ground is on the fast side and he will be hard to beat in this contest if his jumping holds up. Ulusaba won a moderate contest at Southwell last time out but this looks a lot tougher. Divulge is also one to consider but he to is beset with jumping problems. Flahive's First could run well at a good price after a fair effort last time out.
