Verdict
OWNER OCCUPIER is slowly coming down the weights and, though still beaten 18 lengths at Fontwell last month, should go close in this even weaker contest. Goring Two rates a danger on his comeback third at Lingfield and Lajidaal should strip fitter for his third at Folkestone, though needs to brush up his jumping. Course specialist She's Humble may be starting to feel her age, however, and Pindar was tailed off on his fencing bow at Huntingdon though would have claims if translating his hurdles form to the larger obstacles.
