Verdict

This would appear to revolve around whether Thistlecrack can return from serious injury in top form, because if he can, the handy 6lb he receives from UNOWHATIMEANHARRY could prove decisive. But that has to be in some doubt, as he will have bigger targets this year and won't be given a hard time if Tom Scudamore feels that he needs the run. Unowhatimenaharry has that vital edge in fitness, so despite having to give the weight away, could come out on top today. Colin's Sister keeps improving and might not be as far behind the front two as the figures imply.
