Verdict
This looks to represent a fairly straight-forward opportunity for Welcome To Unos to open his account over hurdles with Arctic Lagoon, Skenfrith and Sweet Milly looking the best of the opposition in a moderate contest. Placed efforts at Catterick (twice), Ayr and Sedgefield since the turn of the year make Mary Reveley's gelding the clear form pick and, with his form proven on similar going, Welcome To Unos is given a confident vote. Arctic Lagoon is better than recent evidence suggests judged by form at Musselburgh behind Far Pavillions and looks the best bet for the forecast. Carlisle second Skenfrith, the consistent Sweet Milly and bumper winner Bradley My Boy, who has failed to progress over timber are others worthy of a mention but this should go to the selection.
