Verdict
Tarski is taken to get back on the winning trail he was outclassed in a class D handicap last time out but he comes back down in grade here and he will be hard to beat with conditions again in his favour. Sammy Samba would have a major chance on her bumper form but has disappointed over hurdles so far however she may be worth another chance as she was badly hampered at the first last time out and stayed on well to be fifth and she may have got in lightly here. Mr Ben Gunn won a moderate novice chase at Market Rasen last time but he may not have enough pace to land a blow back over hurdles. Redouble would have a chance on his best form but has become disappointing of late. Gandon has been running with a modicum of promise on the flat of late over middle distances and he could go close off his very light weight. The remainder need to improve on there latest form to score.
