Verdict
De Blacksmith is usually worth opposing but stablemate Golanova is a course and distance winner and not without a chance. Here I Am usually has plenty of time between races but won at Fontwell last month and is a consistent sort. Killabraher Cross has an excellent record here but both course wins have come at a lower level. HINDON ROAD (NAP) was third at Newbury on his latest start and has been dropped a couple of pounds since. He's only had three runs over fences so may be capable of better and drops a grade for this.
