Verdict
Valigan is expected to break his duck at the first time of asking in this sphere. The gelding who was formally trained by Len Lungo and at his best he was rated in the 130's, he need only jump around to score. Go Nomadic is a fair pointer at his best but his best form is on soft to heavy ground and he may find this surface to quick for him. I'm The man won a handicap chase at Musselburgh on his last start and if he is fit after a long absence he has definite place claims. Hazel Reilly would also have a chance on her best form. But she was very disappointing in a point-to-point a few days ago. The remainder have to improve on all known form to take a hand in the finish.
