Verdict
OSCARS MOONSHINE (NAP) landed a hat-trick over timber last year including over 2m7f here and will be sharper for last month’s comeback second at Newton Abbot. Paul Nicholls’ charge can make the most of the fitness advantage with all of today’s opposition returning from absences. Gosheven hasn’t raced since last December when runner-up at Doncaster while Beatthebullet and Tight Call were last seen in April with the former preferred making his handicap debut.
