Verdict
BREATHEOFFRESHAIR included a course and distance success in November’s hat-trick and may not have finished improving yet. He’s preferred to last month’s Wolverhampton winner Herm, though the latter was placed off higher marks last year and should go well again. Tagur was still beaten six lengths when runner-up at Southwell recently but Dandy Bird slips further down the weights as she looks to break her duck. Butoolat is another on the slide and Sir Lancelott won off a much higher mark at this time last year.
