Verdict
Abaya Du Mathan has been chalk and cheese the last twice but cannot be discounted off topweight. FINALSHOT has put in two good runs at Market Rasen since returning from a break and Harry Cobden is an added bonus. He's a tempting option on that form and does get the vote despite remaining winless over fences. Seymour Promise is 0-14 under Rules but has been runner-up four times and can't be ruled out, although he does need to find something extra. Scrumpy Boy is the only course and distance winner on show and found some form last time after a few low-key efforts. Miladygrace has been lightly-raced in recent months but is respected on her best form and Forget You Not and Cheer's Delboy need to build on better efforts last time.
