5/6
Has not always convinced with his jumping over fences but still produced a good effort last week. Hurdling form suggests this is a good mark and rider is 6-25 for a yard with a good record around here.

1/1
Showed a great battling attitude to land some good bets last week. The front two pulled clear of a reliable yardstick that day and a 7lb penalty may not enough to halt his progress.

Forecasts

Virnon (5/6), Never Up (1/1), Stage One (6/4), Radsoc De Sivola (80/1)

Verdict

NEVER UP has a 7lb penalty to shoulder for a narrow C&D win last week. That may not be enough to stop him as Stage One has looked fairly ordinary and Virnon has not looked a natural jumper of fences.
  1. Never Up
  2. Virnon
  3. Stage One
