In depth
Verdict
Correct and Right's seventh behind Moneytrain at Cheltenham in January reads very well which is by far the strongest form in the race, and although her recent two runs leave a lot to be desired she has been presented with a very simple opportunity here. The opposition is poor with only Julia's Choice an obvious danger. She stepped up considerably on previous runs when finishing third at Bangor last time out and if she is able to build on that then she can chase the selection home. The remainder are very difficult to get enthusiastic about.
