Verdict

Joyeux Royal won with a little in hand at Plumpton last time out and is taken by TEAMtalk to score again despite a penalty under similar conditions. His yard is still in top form and he has proven form on soft ground. Hell-Of-A -Shindy is well in on his best form but he was let down by his jumping at vital stages in races last year and will have to brush up in that department before his true potential is shown. Scoring Pedigree would also have a chance on his best form but needs fast ground to be seen at his best. Tailored is one of the least exposed in the field. He won a Kempton novice chase in good style last season on his only run and his stable are in top form. He could go well at a fair price in a tight affair. The remaining two runners have long absences to overcome.
