Verdict
BALLY RONE fell when long odds-on over track and trip last month but he's every chance of making amends today if reproducing an earlier third at the track. Houndscourt will improve on his second at Southwell and should be winning soon but Definite Dream and King Spirit probably have a bit to find while Flat winner Mighty Clarets hasn't been seen since October. None of the others make much appeal on what they've shown so far.
