Verdict
Kentford Mallard has won over fences but, along with Everlanes, has plenty to find with the remaining pair on today’s terms. Annie Mc has a leading chance if taking to the larger obstacles on her hurdling form but IF YOU SAY RUN has the advantage of experience over fences. She scored at Worcester on her chasing bow before finding only the smart Reserve Tank, rated 151, too good over track and trip so Paul Nicholls’ mare makes most appeal having also won in heavy going over hurdles.
