Verdict
Fakenham winner Vetoncall has been very lightly raced for his age but ROCCOWITHLOVE left previous form over fences well behind when fourth in a competitive novices’ handicap at Wetherby on Boxing Day. He has dropped a pound in the ratings since so is 8lb better off with runner-up Beat The Edge. Lisloran is upped in trip and the weights after completing an Ayr double but chasing debutant Mixedwave is worth a second look.
