In depth
Verdict
Major Adventure took a while to lose his maiden tag over fences, but he did it good style and may have gained some confidence for getting his head in front, although he has no easy task under top weight. Recent course and distance winner Sir Robbo, has more to do off this mark, while the consistent Simber Hill, is a hard ride and is generally worth opposing. Lucys Lad looks the one to be with, after running away with a similar event at Towcester. He was value for more than the winning margin and should make light of his penalty.
