Verdict
Voodoo Doll looks a player in this with Isabel Williams’ claim in his favour. Liosduin Bhearna battled to a first victory at Ayr and should be competitive again 5lb higher. Tegerek still has time on his side and Dandolo Du Gite has had a wind operation since disappointing on his handicap debut. Klare Castle was placed over this trip at Huntingdon in December but Dark Episode appears to have gone backwards and Chimes Of Dylan weakened quickly on his reappearance at Sedgefield. ACARO’s winning margin at Fontwell was exaggerated by conditions but he did it easily and can follow up off a 7lb higher mark.
