Verdict
There are four previous C&D winners in this opener, including Batgirl who'll be partnered by Hannah Nunn who rode a winner at Ripon on Monday. Along with Jonnie Skull she failed to justify favouritism last time, however, while neither Spin Again nor See The Storm have been in particularly good form lately. Hierarch has also disappointed since beating Jonnie Skull at Brighton in June while Mishrif needs to rediscover his best to figure. DANNIOS has his first run since October but he's unbeaten in three starts here over a mile and could take all the beating again if fully wound-up.
