        Verdict

        An interesting handicap chase with several of the eight runners holding claims including Skinsey Finnegan, Benji and Shalford but the vote goes to Moscow Tradition, who looks fairly treated for his debut in the grade. The selection made a pleasing return over hurdles when third to Air Of Confusion at Bangor and is entitled to improve for the run. The switch to chasing may be the making of Jonjo O'Neill's gelding and, off a mark of 95, he looks worth a bet. Skinsey Finnegan is a consistent performer but seems plenty high enough in the weights at present and may need the outing anyway. Benji has been raised 5lbs for his defeat of Misty Future (runs in the 3:05pm) at Hereford last time and cannot be discounted. He rates a bigger threat than Salford, who probably needs some help from the handicapper. Tudor King is inconsistent these days, while Just Reuben may struggle from 3lbs out of the weights proper so the vote goes to Moscow Tradition.
