Verdict
Native Optimist dotted up at Hexham last time but is upped a grade off a 12lb higher mark for this. GILZEAN makes more appeal as he can race off the same mark as when third over track and trip last time and is only 2lb higher than an earlier success at Plumpton. Howaboutnever won off a 10lb lower mark at Huntingdon in August though ran well again when placed on his latest start but the remainder are struggling for form with Beauboreen making most appeal of them with a recent run under his belt.
