Verdict
Very few stables have their runners in better form at present than Nigel Twiston-Davies and he can land another prize here with NATIONAL TRUST, who looks the clear pick of his two runners ahead of Tayman, and he should appreciate the return to further having been eased once beaten over two miles over fences at Ffos Las last time. David Pipe's Armenian Boy has a bit to find with the selection on official BHA ratings but has been running well in better company than this of late so rates a bigger threat than Matthew Salaman's consistent Pocket Too, who invariably finds at least one too good. Tighe Caster is capable of taking a hand in the finish but has disappointed in previous starts this term.
