Verdict
Those at the top of the weights have all slipped down the ratings lately. Trapper Peak has been placed on a couple of occasions this year but was well beaten in both while though September Blaze went close at Bangor on her reappearance she disappointed on her latest start. LIKE SULLY never recovered from an early blunder here last time but had gone close to catching Very Live over course and distance before that - Richard Rowe's charge gets the nod off his current mark. Gold Carrot is hard to predict but won at Lingfield in between a couple of poor efforts while Triple Chief won over hurdles here last month, though makes his debut over fences today.
