Verdict
TONY HOLLIS finished third behind Storey Hill, who has a good chance in the previous race, over track and trip last week. Mike Appleby's charge should go close with a similar effort. Interchoice Star wasn't beaten far over 6f here recently but Vale Of Clara still finished a long way behind the winner when placed at Southwell on her latest start. Misty Eyes has a shout back on the Polytrack after failing to figure on the Fibresand, while Chez Vrony has the past form to figure.
