Verdict
Jimmy Frost's Huntingdon winner Glacial Call has disappointed of late and of more interest may be Lawney Hill's point-to-point winner Bynack Mhor, although he has struggled against the handicapper since winning narrowly over course and distance in July and is now 8lb higher. Jonjo O'Neill's Lots Of Fun has been well held in all three starts so far but may do better now sent handicapping, while Portrait Royale is now 6lb higher than when scoring at Plumpton in April but he is better there and may not be as well suited by this venue. The vote then goes the way of the James Evans-trained HEEZAGREY, who has been running consistently well over fences and hurdles of late and remains well enough treated to win a race of this nature.
