      Verdict

      None arrive in decent form, including last year’s winner Minella Fiveo and 2017 winner Ninepointsixthree. The latter finished closer at Uttoxeter last time but remains 7lb higher than when last successful while The Herds Garden failed to cope with a rise in the weights last time having won over a longer trip at Kelso earlier. Percy has won a maiden hurdle in Ireland and debuts for a new yard but a chance is taken on BARACALU improving for last month’s pipe-opener at Carlisle and he gets a tentative vote now handicapping with headgear applied for the first time.
