Verdict

Waterlord appeared to be going places earlier in the season when trouncing his opposition here and at Haydock, but he's taken backwards steps in good company since. He was pulled up in the Betfair Hurdle last time and, while this is easier, the burst blood vessels are a concern. In any case, BALLYMOY showed improved form after a wind op when scoring at Uttoxeter last month and the five-year-old arguably has more scope to improve again. He gets the nod for Nigel Twiston-Davies. Brigadier Bob and Never A Word are capable of improving to fight out the minor prizes.
