Verdict
Tothemoonandback has won over a track and trip before and should have come on for a recent outing here. But stablemate GOLANOVA is preferred off his current mark. The latter was never going in soft ground at Fontwell last time but was second at Kempton before that. Coolking has won twice over hurdles this year and landed a chase at Warwick off today’s mark last year while Albatros De Guye has won twice over 2m4f in soft ground. Forrest Blue remains woefully out of sorts.
