      Verdict

      Not a race to get too financially involved in on the face of it. Both Green Smoke and Broom Close have gone well over further, though the former ran well enough over this trip at Catterick last time. Both Right and Michael Finnegan making their chasing debuts and it is the latter who appeals most as he is proven in the ground more than the rest, so with his first-time fencing taken on trust he could be the key to a trappy looking contest.
