      Verdict

      A typical maiden chase with Aberfoyle Park looking the clear form point providing he remains on his feet. The form of his fourth at Kempton in November has worked out well and would have won last time out but for a last fence fall. Deoch An Dorais must be respected from a powerful stable but will need to improve significantly from his chase debut. Kick For Touch can be given a chance on the evidence of his recent third at Wincanton behind some useful performers. Mister Sunshine looks the pick of the Kim Bailey runners.
