Verdict
Twenty Twenty is potentially well treated seeking a fourth victory on the track but has a very inexperienced amateur doing the steering with Jamie Moore partnering the course and distance winner Nessfield Blue for Pat Murphy. WAVECREST (NAP) signed off in the autumn with a 10-length victory at Hereford. He remains unexposed over the larger obstacles and has been waiting for this better ground. Aeronisi is also returning from a break and makes his chasing debut but should do better over the larger obstacles.
