Verdict
This amateurs' race has attracted a bumper entry but few look to have much chance of winning. Solway Sam was fourth in this last year, ahead of stablemate Solway Dornal and RYTON RUNNER (NAP). But Lucinda Russell's charge comes out best at the weights this time and would probably have beaten Bracing at Musselburgh a couple of months ago had he not been hampered when challenging. The booking of Harry Bannister, who rode last year's winner for the yard, is a positive and he's preferred to stable companion Dotties Dilemma and chaser Bertenbar. An Capall Mor has joined Gordon Elliott but hasn't raced since October.
