          Verdict

          The Venetia Williams-trained Rudolf Rassendyll comes here fresher than most but may well bounce and, with Villair a doubtful stayer, we take a chance with Act In Time. Tom George's gelding has been hunting since last seen out in a handicap, winning a point-to-point and losing no caste in defeat in two hunter chases. He now returns off a 12lb lower mark than when last seen in a handicap and looks worth a bet in a competitive contest. The consistent Red Rampage and Kelantan both have to be respected and are entitled to be thereabouts, provided that they stay today's trip, while Be Upstanding has claims no that Ferdy Murphy's horses are back among the winners. Nicky Henderson's Ain Tecbalet has shown ability but is none too consistent, while Jonjo O'Neill's six-year-old Be The Tops gets in on a lightweight. However, for the selection we side with Act In Time, who is taken to make the most of what looks a favourable mark.
