        Verdict

        Balibour has yet to win but returned from a lay-off with a better effort at Market Rasen while Jeu De Mots won over these fences last summer but is having his first outing since June. ALF ‘N’ DOR (NAP) could only manage fourth in soft going here recently but Peter Bowen’s charge won on faster ground at Plumpton earlier when beating Finnegan’s Garden, who subsequently completed a hat-trick, and he gets the vote on that form only 4lb higher. A dual winner over hurdles at the end of last year, Farm The Rock was well beaten back over fences last time and Fact Flow still looks a shade high in the weights.
