Verdict

Eceparti won twice around this time last year but generally struggled off this sort of mark later. Momella was pulled up on her chasing bow but much better second time at Huntingdon though is another who lacks a recent run. DIAMOND FORT hasn’t raced since January but slips further down the ratings after placing in decent handicaps at Uttoxeter and Catterick so shouldn’t be far away. Killer Clown has bags of scope and his mishap at Uttoxeter can be forgiven while Carrick Roads was second at Fontwell on his reappearance. Arian was clear when falling at Ffos Las in March and has since joined Philip Hobbs so is another to consider
