In depth
Verdict
Glen Forsa won a maiden bumper here in November and Mick Channon does well with his small team of jumpers. But we’ll give another chance to BURBANK, who found a 33/1 chance too good on his hurdling debut here last month but still finished nine lengths ahead of a previous winner and holds Man From Mars on that run. Calva D'honore and Crystal Lad both need to put recent poor runs behind them but Quarenta should improve on his run at Newton Abbot in October.
