Verdict
The penny has definitely dropped with MS PARFOIS over fences and she can see off the geldings to complete her hat-trick. Suited by soft going, she beat some useful mares at Newbury last time having jumped well when scoring at Cheltenham earlier. Duel At Dawn was trying to give 5lb to Sizing Tennessee at Cheltenham after beating Flintham by 16 lengths at Exeter. He is a dour stayer who’ll enjoy this test and looks the danger. Western Climate is two from two over the larger obstacles but this is a step up from handicap company. Big River tends to reserve his best for Kelso and was pulled up at Haydock when last seen.
