Verdict

Going and trip are fine for Plumpton winner DUC KAUTO and Colin Tizzard’s six-year-old can double his tally off a 6lb higher mark. On Raglan Road was only beaten a neck at Warwick on his first start since wind surgery but has been raised 4lb. Samson The Man had just been headed when falling two out last time and should help force the pace but Potters Sapphire disappointed here on Boxing Day. Ermyn's Emerald and Wahwonaisa look the pick of the remainder.
