Verdict
RIDDLESTOWN arrives fresh from landing a conditionals’ race over hurdles here and escapes a penalty back over the larger obstacles. He scored over these fences earlier last month and can go in again. Jaunty Thor won over timber here in November but never threatened when fourth on his chasing bow last time and Annamult disappointed on his latest start having gone close over 3m here before that. Fuhgeddaboudit was second at Leicester but didn’t get very far when unseating at Huntingdon but Ever So Much won off a higher mark over track and trip last year and Minella Forfitness slips further down the weights.
