        Verdict

        Most are looking to put below par latest outings behind them though NATHANS PRIDE still finished runner-up over hurdles last time. He’d won only his second start over fences when successful at Musselburgh before that and there should be more to come from him back over the larger obstacles today. Mad Jack Mytton has a shout on his placed form over 2m while Somewhere To Be went close at Uttoxeter before struggling at Lingfield. A winner at Warwick, Jarlath failed to cope with a 9lb rise back at the same track while Copper West and Lord Bryan were both placed on their penultimate starts and Astracad slides further down the weights.
