Verdict
Ever So Much is on the same mark as when winning this 12 months ago but only ran at Hexham on Wednesday night. Ben Haslam has also entered Scoop The Pot and he is eased in grade while Alexander The Grey had every chance when unseating Lilly Pinchin here last week, though has a poor strike-rate. OXWICH BAY never really got going at Uttoxeter after winning at Newton Abbot but surely warrants another chance in a race like this. Henry's Joy has won over fences but seems happier over hurdles nowadays.
