    Verdict

    There's a degree of quality about this race that one might not have expected and we'll take OGEE to land the spoils. The ten-year-old does have to overcome something of a losing run but his last success obtained at Worcester last summer, and he is capable of giving a fair account under the prevailing conditions. Cockney Trucker has surprisingly never won a handicap over hurdles despite being an ever-present in some of the top races during his long career and it remains to be seen as to exactly how much ability he retains. Red Not Blue won off a mark of 132 at Uttoxeter but he's struggled to cut much ice over fences. Thanks For Coming picked up a Novice chase at Towcester in May while Faultless Feelings gets plenty of weight and is less exposed than the majority of his rivals.
