Verdict
DOBERDAN is just 3lb higher than when scoring over the C&D a year ago and looked on the way back at Wetherby last time so looks the one to be on. Vardas Supreme is still a maiden over fences but is getting closer and wasn't beaten far at Hexham last time. Saddle Pack is 10lb higher than when last successful but has needed his two recent runs and shouldn't be dismissed nor should Irish raider Whisky Galore, who would have a chance on his hurdling form and has been lightly raced over fences. Transact looked promising when scoring twice at Newcastle last season but has a long absence to overcome.
