Verdict
Potters Venture hasn’t shown much over fences so far and has changed stables while Bells Of Peterboro will need to brush up his jumping if he is to make a chaser. PLANNED PARADISE only gave best close home at Perth after an earlier win at Worcester and can give the weight away to chasing debutant Don Alvaro.
