Verdict
This looks competitive on paper but we will give the tentative vote to Willie The Fish with Mister Magnum and Super Revo both worth noting. The selection comes from a yard just hitting form and after a success over hurdles at Hexham last time out he looks favourably treated back over fences this time around so is one to stay on the right side of. Mister Magnum has shown a fine level of consistency of late. he was in winning form at Perth in the summer and has continued to run well on good ground. As long as the ground stays on the quick side he can run well as his previous efforts on soft going have not been up to scratch. Super Revo got his head infront at Hexham in June and took a break thereafter after failing to get round. He returned to the track to run well in behind Looking Forward at Hexham last time and if improving once again he holds every chance. But for the winner we return to Willie The Fish.
