Verdict
Tickenwolf has won twice around here, including off a 3lb higher mark. But he’s been out of sorts for a while and Friendly Royal, another course winner, showed nothing on his reappearance at Sedgefield following a lay-off. MAN WITH VAN’s jumping may not be put under as much pressure as normal in this small field so Patrick Griffin’s raider gets the nod with Presented looking a shadow of his former self and held by Tickenwolf on the form book.
