Verdict

Star Of Rory has placed a couple of times over fences and has won here over hurdles. Cilaos Glace won at Fontwell in December but jumped poorly before falling on a return visit and is probably a bit exposed. Ashfield Paddy has had a few chances now while Potters Venture needs to up his game. DASH FULL OF CASH (NAP) has shown ability over hurdles and was only beaten a length in a point as a four-year-old. He wouldn’t need to be a world-beater to land this. Sunset West was engaged in the 4.30 Carlisle yesterday.
