      Verdict

      Twentynineblack was put over fences after winning at Bangor and Cartmel around this time last year but didn't really take to the larger obstacles and his efforts back over hurdles recently suggest he's lost his confidence. Heavenly Chorus, on the other hand, has shown her best form over fences but she's finished tailed off on her last couple of starts and it's not encouraging to see her dropped into this grade at this stage of her career. DEGAS ART has proved difficult to win with and suffered a heavy fall here last month. But the eight-year-old was travelling strongly at the time and should take all the beating at this level with a clear round.
