Verdict
Uberman made all at Lingfield last month and will again be helped by Joe Anderson’s 7lb claim which means he will be receiving 19lb from Wetherby third Donladd. Here We Have It only beat one home on his chasing bow and Catterick fourth Getaway Jewel also needs to take a big step forward but EDMOND DANTES (NAP), who has only had five career starts, is built to jump fences and could be very well treated tackling the larger obstacles for the first time.
