Verdict
Just the four runners but only two appear to have a chance of success. CLEAR THE RUNWAY has been a revelation over fences since last seen over hurdles and should still have the pace to match strides with penalised four-year-old Restitution, who was a disappointing odds-on favourite at Fakenham last time having won a Class 3 handicap at that track earlier.
