Verdict
San Satiro has finished second twice over fences here recently but races off a higher mark back over hurdles. Gardiners Hill, on the other hand, is rated 5lb higher over fences and should handle conditions. DOCTOR LOOK HERE had slipped to a lenient mark when easily landing a lady riders’ race here last month under Lucy Gardner. He is 6lb higher now but the soft going won’t be a problem and a follow-up may be on the cards as he appears to have the beating of Mighty Leader. Sporting Boy retains plenty of enthusiasm but need to bounce back from a poor run at Stratford while Glanvilles Guest is now on a career-high mark.
