In depth
Verdict
Just Toby failed to win over hurdles but was having only his second start over fences when successful at Wincanton. He drops down in trip on his return from an absence while Templier is upped in distance after finishing second at Fakenham. WHO IS THAT has been rested since struggling over 3m back in October but had won at Fontwell before that and gets the vote with Chris Gordon’s yard firing-in the winners. Bitasweetsymphony ran well at Hereford last time and can figure again.
