Lord Navits' latest victory came in a claiming hurdle but he has won over fences. Last Shot is eased in grade and back on a winning mark while Quick Decisson was placed in his first three tries over the larger obstacles before disappointing when favourite at Wincanton. The free-going Trafalgar might do better dropped in trip but hasn't shown a lot of sparkle so far this season. CRAFTY ROBERTO would have caught Whispering Harry in another couple of strides on his chasing bow at Taunton so looks well treated off only a pound higher and can go one better today.
