Verdict
Lucky Prince made several mistakes when staying on behind Orlittlebylittle at Bangor but the longer trip should help and he's on the short-list. Mr Tingle also made errors before falling at Towcester but that was his first start since October and improvement is expected. Pierre Dubh had shown nothing until a shock victory at Wincanton where he would have won easier but for his rider dropping his hands close home. He's up 9lb but this is a poor contest and he should be thereabouts. NATIVE BREEZE had shown a bit of ability in bumpers but nothing over timber until a better effort at Stratford last time. He might just be good enough to gain his first victory.
