Verdict
Toad Of Toad Hall has won twice here, trouncing An Marcach over 3m2f at the track in May. Zoran has been in decent form at Worcester but No Worries finished very tired at that track in July. BENSINI’s lack of chasing experience is a slight concern but he looks well enough treated if he handles these tricky fences.
