Verdict
Runswick Days got off the mark over fences over course and distance two weeks ago and is only 2lb higher. He seems sure to be in the firing-line again but this is a tad more competitive. Winning pointer Midnight Streaker may do better now she tackles the larger obstacles but that's also the case with SILVER VOGUE. Sue Smith's grey has only had five career starts and appreciated the step up in trip over hurdles at Wetherby last month. He can open his account today.
