In depth
Verdict
Little Windmill, D’NAILOR and That's The Deal finished in a heap behind easy winner Enjoy Responsibility here just over a month ago. They meet again on identical terms but Jennie Candlish’s runner can come out best this time and record a second course and distance victory. Foundation Man has a lot to prove at present and Cody Wyoming reverted to type last time at Wincanton while Newberry New is 0-6 over fences, though has been placed on three occasions including last time at Bangor.
