        Verdict

        Black Narcissus reverts to hurdles after suffering a heavy fall over fences at Fontwell last month but she's shot up the weights. Captain McGinley has gone backwards since finishing second at Worcester in October and Bishop Wulstan is also regressing. Fishing Bridge is a course and distance winner but not getting any younger and Bonobo is probably more interesting as he generally taken on stronger opposition. DRIFTWOOD HAZE probably only needs to find a little improvement to go one better that at Chepstow eight days ago.
