Verdict
Katmai River has not won since landing this race last year but has to come into the reckoning off a 3lb lower mark today. Schottische has been well beaten since scoring at Southwell in January but Standing Strong is back on a winning mark if Jack Garrity's allowance is taken into account. STORM RUNNER tumbled down the weights last year and was not beaten far in an amateur's race over track and trip when last at this venue. He gets a token vote with the remainder hard to recommend in a low grade affair.
