Verdict
Stratford runner-up Golander and Yourholidayisover will carry more than their allotted weight while Royal Act and Stephanie Sunshine were engaged yesterday at Huntingdon. Centreofexcellence won over track and trip last year of a 5lb higher mark and may be running into a bit of form. Glance Back has been a model of consistency since switching to fences while the handicapper is starting to show Vocaliser some mercy. Champion Chase and Ut Majeur Aulmes are not out of this but AGENT WESTY hasn’t had much luck since scoring at Fontwell last month and still has time on his side.
