Verdict
Triumph Davis was having his 18th start over hurdles when scoring at Newcastle last month and though 6lb higher should be in the mix again in this poor handicap. Feast Of Fire has been chasing and needs a thorough test of stamina which he's likely to get here so he has to be a threat though SNAPPING TURTLE looks the one to be on. Don Whillans' charge won over the course and distance last March from a 4lb higher mark and almost followed up in October from 10lb higher than today. Darsi Dancer is the other course and distance winner but he's been running poorly recently.
