Verdict
Cawthorne Lad is capable over hurdles and fences but better treated over the smaller obstacles at present. Fat Sam is also versatile and has a good strike-rate and David Pipe is double-handed with Awesomedude preferred to Al Roc. Fergal O’Brien is another trainer with two entries and BLUE SANS might be the value ahead of the in-form Accidental Rebel with Jack Hogan taking a valuable 7lb off the former who wasn’t given a hard time on her reappearance at Uttoxeter. Presenting Pete has proved best at Southwell so far but Dasher Riley has run well around here in a brief career so far under Rules.
