Verdict
OLD PRIDE is scheduled to be David Loder's first runner since he rejoined the training ranks and he can get the former Godolphin lynchpin off to a flier. Placed at Warwick and Stratford in the spring, the seven-year-old probably has most to fear from the race-fit Arty Campbell. Bernard Llewellyn's charge had decent form in staying races on the Flat, though is still awaiting a first victory over timber. The returning Thunder Sheik is worth a market check but Mr Lando has gone off the boil and none of the others make much appeal on recent form.
