Verdict
Roque It made a winning debut over fences when successful at Taunton and is 6lb higher. FAVORI DE SIVOLA is another recent winner having scored for a third time in six outings over fences on his return to action at Exeter. That was also his first start after wind surgery and another bold bid is expected from Nick Williams’ charge. Butterwick Brook beat The Devils Drop a length over track and trip earlier in the month and that pair are hard to separate while Dhowin slips further down the weights. Ede'iffs Elton goes well here but is upped in class.
