Verdict
Debden Bank was pulled up at Southwell last month but is 4-11 over fences and the booking of Brian Hughes is hardly a negative. Victory Echo arrives off the back of a win at Perth and Drop Him In has shown improved form at Huntingdon recently. Great D'Ange has questions to answer nowadays but Harry Du Berlais won over 3m here in November and has been slipping down the weights again lately. HARDY BOY and Sageburg County are both making their chasing bows but the former looks the pick of the weights and is eased in grade.
