Verdict
We're happy to take on An Capall Mor in this with the Donald McCain yard quiet at present. Catch Tammy has more to do than when winning a maiden chase at Towcester while Bay Central hasn't looked remotely like taking advantage of a tumble down the weights and was a long way behind FINTAN here in the autumn. Rob Summers' 10-year-old should be approaching peak fitness again after a couple of recent runs and can beat this modest bunch. Benny's Quest keeps finding one too good and has been raised 3lb since finishing second at Newton Abbot.
