        Verdict

        Bangor winner HOWABOUTNOW went close under a penalty at Ayr last time. He's given another chance here as today's rivals have yet to run anywhere near the same level. Brother Scott may yet do so given he finished runner-up over C&D in December and Vuvuzela should improve on his debut third in an all-weather bumper at Southwell. Willy C is worth noting on his debut, but fellow newcomer Naburn makes more appeal as he's a half-brother to hurdles winner Cruzspiel among others.
