        Verdict

        A competitive field here for this handicap chase in which all the runners can be given a chance on there best form, but the TEAMtalk selection is the top weight Kingston-Banker. He was a good second behind Joly Bey at Newton Abbot last time out and the gelding from the bang-in-form Robert Alner yard is proven on the ground. Trusting Tom rates the main danger as he was a good fourth behind Orswell Crest at Aintree last time out and this race looks a lot easier, but he has never won off a mark this high. Dads Lad would also be worthy of consideration but he is prone to the odd error and his best form is on very soft ground. Luke Warm could also go well as he is thrown in oh his best form, but his stable has not had a winner for a long time. April Spirit is from a yard in top form but has only ever won at Worcester and his best form is on faster ground. The remainder need to improve on there most recent efforts to trouble the judge.
