    Verdict

    Small fields are the order of the day here and BAGAD BIHOUE will be a short price to complete a four-timer in this opener. Magna Cartor was starting to struggle when unseating his rider behind Paul Nicholls' French import here last week and Sand Blast was beaten under a penalty at Uttoxeter having won over 2m4f at Worcester earlier. Miliair needs to have her sights lowered.
