Verdict
Previously hard to win with, Golden Town has won his last two including one over course and distance. Green Zone can never be left out of calculations around here and Mistiroc is interesting as he arrives fit from the Flat and is totally unexposed over hurdles. Lucky Robin had the run of the race at Market Rasen but saw it out well, though has gone up 10lb. CHEF DE TROUPE (NAP) weakened quickly once headed last time but that was in a much better race than this. Progressive earlier, he would not have travelled up for this unless connections fancied his chances.
