Verdict
ANOTHER THEATRE (NAP) was rated 122 after completing a double here in January last year. She raced over fences in her two starts this year before reverting to hurdles at Southwell on Sunday and winning by 18 lengths. She'll be hit hard when reassessed and a 7lb penalty is negated by her rider's claim. Runasimi River was in excellent form last winter winning four times and had probably done enough when running poorly at Uttoxeter in February. River Icon won over fences in August though has finished last in her two latest starts but Golden Robin has run well from her raised mark after a shock victory at Hexham. Joie De Vivre is up 5lb for landing a lower-grade handicap at Ayr in October.
