Verdict
Helford River ran a shocker here last month after a promising reappearance at Uttoxeter. RIGHT DESTINATION wasn’t beaten far when third at Worcester and has dropped a pound since so must have every chance of getting off the mark over timber at the 11th attempt though Ragamuffin looks a big danger having only gone up 3lb for scoring at Uttoxeter.
