Verdict
High Noon is back on a winning mark and has had a pipe-opener while Canelo won the Rowland Meyrick in 2020, though has recently changed stables. Avoid De Master won at Newcastle in December but has been well beaten in both starts since. Dolly Dancer landed a gamble in this 12 months ago and is 9lb lower while Paricolor won over hurdles on this card last year but CROAGH PATRICK is going from strength-to-strength and holds Scottish Accent on Carlisle running so can complete the hat-trick.
