Verdict
Benevolent ran well enough on his chasing debut back in May and has joined a new yard since. But he has a bit to find with these on his form over timber. Corrin Wood goes chasing for the first time on his reappearance while Walkabout Creek gained his first experience of the larger obstacles with a modest fourth at Carlisle recently. But BABY SHINE makes most appeal as she receives a mares allowance and looks worth another chance having fallen when still in contention at Fontwell on her chasing bow. She'll have benefited for the experience and gets the vote.
