Verdict
Devour returns to novice company having won a handicap at Wetherby in October but has a bit to find on these terms with Linelee King. The latter won a novice event at Kelso before going close again under a penalty but ENQARDE comes out best at the weights. The latter just missed out at Ascot on his first outing of the year and debut for a new yard and can go one better in this. Sunset West was still in contention when falling at Kelso and is not out of this either.
