In depth
Verdict
With little form under rules to go by, reliance is placed on point-to-point outings with Splash and Dash getting the vote having been in good form this season at Cottenham as well as winning a competitive maiden in Ireland last season. The ground should suit and he has an experienced pilot aboard. Grizzly Golfwear showed some ability under rules in novice chases and has improved in point-to-points this season. If handling the ground he should go well. Boogy Woogy is a consistent if not flashy performer under rules and his racecourse experience should serve him well. Fourth last time out at Kelso under similar conditions he should put up a good account of himself.
