Verdict
Most of these have a shout if at their best but a couple have the advantage of a recent outing. The Herds Garden ran well for third at Carlisle last month but has yet to score over fences and DOMTALINE (NAP) is preferred. Peter Winks’ charge was beaten only a couple of lengths when placed at Wetherby recently and looks up to winning off his current mark on that evidence. Quick Decisson was runner-up in a lower grade at Ayr and could figure but Imjoeking has his first start since finishing second over track and trip in September. Aye Well is a course and distance winner and makes most appeal of the remainder.
