Verdict
Knocknamona can pop up when least expected, as he did in this last year racing off the same mark. Lastin' Memories is inconsistent and will likely need this run and GIPSY LEE ROSE has a modest strike-rate. However, Nick Alexander’s mare placed three times in the autumn and shouldn’t be far away again. Fever Roque has more scope than most of these over fences and rates the danger unless cheekpieces revive the fortunes of Well Cliche.
