Verdict
Landscape has the form to figure in a race like this but it’s more than five years since he was last in the winner’s enclosure. Richardofdoccombe has only gone up 2lb for a half-length defeat at Uttoxeter last month so comes into the reckoning. Stolberg was in the process of running his best race so far for Dai Williams when falling at Plumpton while Scartare is plummeting down the handicap but Rocket Ronnie is going backwards. BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY is bidding for a first win over hurdles since 2015 but he’s not been running badly on the all-weather and this looks a modest finale.
