Verdict
This looks tricky as all have doubts of one sort or another. Tulin has ability but has joined a new yard from Paul Nicholls after being tailed off when last seen and Platinumcard has shown little in two starts for David Pipe but both came in better and more competitive contests. He's of some interest here. DR SANDERSON has been out of form for a while but wasn't at all out of things when stumbling last time and his yard is having a fine spell. He may have turned a corner and is a hopeful choice. Clapton Hill and Rock The House both need to bounce back from pulled up efforts and Loved Out has shown little the last twice. Nikhi has shown some ability over timber but takes on her elders here and she has been well beaten the last twice when well backed. She retains potential but needs to progress.
