Verdict

VAL DE TRAVERS (NAP), having his first start for Mick Appleby, had obviously done well over the winter as he was well supported at Nottingham on Saturday and scored despite taking a fierce hold. He has a 5lb penalty but a quick double looks on the cards. Bluella gained one of only two career victories in this race a year ago from a mark of 45 and she's 1lb lower despite being reasonably consistent subsequently. Mokaman is 2-20, both victories having come here, while Jungle Inthebungle wasn't beaten far over track and trip a couple of weeks ago. Qaaraat, who will be having his 113th start, has six victories to his credit, but all-but-one on the all-weather.
