Verdict
Chatelier was last of four finishers at Bangor on Wednesday while No No Mac and Stormy Reception lack a recent run. King's Wharf and Graystown are closely matched on Perth running but Orioninverness holds No Such Number and Some Ambition on their run together at the same track and will be fancied to follow up. Roll Of Thunder likes it here and should be approaching peak fitness but the enigmatic EVER SO MUCH might be hard to beat if on a going day. He’s run poorly in his two starts over fences this season but he won over hurdles off this mark here last month so is potentially well treated.
