Verdict
AMERICAN GERRY had every chance at Fontwell last Sunday but found one too good again. He steps up in trip here, however, and that should suit given he stayed 3m between the flags. Seven Arches won a bumper last season but has proved inconsistent so far over timber and Punta Prima is best watched making his debut over hurdles. Not What It Seems has placed a couple of times but already looks fully exposed.
