Verdict

Robinesse has only finished out of the frame once so far and that was in Listed company. Peak To Peak beat Clondaw Bisto over course and distance in November and will appreciate a return to this grade. SIR ANTHONY BROWNE made a winning start over hurdles at Wincanton, despite running green. He has obvious scope for improvement and should handle today’s step up in trip. Crystal Lad has been placed three times but doesn’t appear to be progressing and none of the others make much appeal.
