Previous results

Verdict

Ofalltheginjoints won a point in April and battled on to just get up over 2m on his hurdling debut at Chepstow so this trip is much more likely to suit. He has a penalty to carry as does VERSATILITY, who was always travelling well when scoring over 2m3f at Warwick and looks one to follow. Grey Getaway will be better for his run at Aintree while Dan Skelton's Boss Man Fred and Alan King's Hacksaw Ridge are both winning point-to-pointers who should be making their mark soon.
