Verdict

Hunters Tweed heads the field and is given the nod to take this novice chase. He was very disappointing at Haydock on his last start but seems to be a much better horse at Wetherby . Any reproduction of his second to Jungle Jinks here would be more than good enough today. Devil's Run also likes it here but there are obvious question-marks about his fencing. Mister Dave's ran a career best to give Jungle Jinks a Boxing Day fright. He is exposed but should take a hand in this contest. Jivaros and Would You Believe are of interest on Northern raids. Neither are proven on the surface and a watch on the market is advised.
