In depth
Verdict
Mr Fluffy who won well at Uttoxeter last time out looks set to score despite his penalty he and this race does not look any harder. Mr McDuff has shown a modicum of ability but he looks very one paced and this gelding by Mandalus may improve for a step up to a longer trip. Meltonian had shown a modicum of ability in bumpers but he has failed to progress over hurdles. Adalie has got placed form to his name over hurdles and he should have benefited for his debut run this season and strip a lot fitter today. The remainder will have to improve on all known form to score.
