        Verdict

        RUNNING IN HEELS has proved a decent acquisition for Gavin Cromwell as she’s won twice over hurdles and twice over fences. Left clear last time at Sedgefield, the mare is only 2lb higher here and another big run is anticipated. Ange Des Malberaux has won twice for Dan Skelton but now has to race off much higher marks and looks vulnerable. Last month’s course and distance winner Arizona Bound has gone up 5lb but is respected and the switch to fences might suit Northern Beau as he’s won between the flags. Gordon Elliott runs another former pointer in Forrardon Xmoor but he’ll do well to win this following a lengthy absence.
