Verdict
WILLIAM CODY (NAP) won comfortably at Huntingdon on Boxing Day and this is a track where Pam Sly has tended to do well with her runners. Maninsane is at his best when small fields obtain so herein lies an opportunity while On Springs is relieved of the visor he wore at Newcastle after that experiment proved to be a big failure. Feivel has been given time off since flopping at Southwell and Full Of Light has a rating based on his hurdling exploits though he will need to improve significantly upon what he showed at Exeter on what was his first try over the larger obstacles.
