Verdict
A winner at Perth in April, Stick To The Plan was unlucky at Southwell when his rider lost an iron and unseated and this is easier than his latest task at Cheltenham. But LETTHERIVERRUNDRY (NAP) also drops in class having gone close at Ffos Las last month and Brendan Powell’s charge can go one better in this raised only 2lb. Christmas In April will likely improve handicapping for the first time on his seasonal debut while Towering is preferred to Fair To Middling on recent placed efforts.
