Verdict
GUIDEDBYTHESCIENCE was a wide margin winner at Fakenham and is due to be raised by 4lb more than today's penalty. Gillian Boanas' mare can go in again. Cloudy Wednesday was a well-backed favourite behind the selection and now has something to prove while Justified searches for a first victory over hurdles and has gone close off similar marks. Jersey has had wind surgery though we are yet to see any positive effects for it whilst Kentford Mallard takes a drop in trip having run with plenty of credit at this course last month.
