Verdict
Chase The Wind, a winner here in April, will have needed his run at Bangor last month and has each-way claims. Diamond Brig has also won over these fences and has had wind surgery since a couple of runs at Worcester at the start of summer but Normandy Soldier appears to have lost the plot. NO NO MAESTRO (NAP) is difficult to oppose seeking a hat-trick. He’s been transformed by cheekpieces and the form of his latest victory at Hexham has been franked.
