    In depth

    Verdict

    This is a very moderate contest and one for punters to be wary of. Barton Bandit came second in a modest Aintree event a couple of weeks ago and wouldn't have to improve to take this with some ease. If there is a danger Westfield John could be the one, having some hope of being better on this debut outing over fences than he was over the smaller obstacles.
