Verdict
Mission Complete has been struggling off lower marks over fences and doesn't look the force of old. Valleyofmilan has also been chasing but Dusky Bob won over hurdles at Hexham last month, only to disappoint next time at Carlisle. TURTLE CASK took advantage of a drop in the weights to score by 13 lengths over course and distance a couple of weeks ago. He's gone up 8lb for that but has ground conditions in his favour again and should take all the beating. Goodoldhonkytonk ran much better at Southwell last time and may be the danger.
