Verdict

All The Chimneys has won three times over fences around here, the latest from 4lb lower last month and his last run came over hurdles. RICKY LANGFORD (NAP), who finished four lengths back in third, probably found the ground too sticky and has since run well over timber. He can reverse the places providing the going doesn't ease too much and he holds Seskin Flyer, who won this back in 2018, on that run. Western Sea is on a very long losing run but made a bold bid to make all here last time when only headed on the run-in. Springfield Lodge, who completed a double in the spring, appears to need further and more testing conditions.
