Verdict
Joseph Lister's second to Tony Star at Fontwell was a very decent comeback effort and he's only 3lb higher here. Phoenix Flight should strip fitter for a run on the Flat four weeks ago while Sainglend and Carlisle second Bandanaman aren't without a chance but Well Hello There, Brough Academy and Cue To Cue are all returning from a break and Nether Stream only won a seller at Huntingdon in August. THE FONZ was never travelling when pulled up at Uttoxeter in September but that wasn't his true running and an earlier defeat of Lieutenant Miller over this C&D has worked out well - he gets another chance.
