Verdict

Nicky Henderson has won two of the five previous renewals of this race and the master of Seven Burrows looks to have found Fakenham winner FALCO BLITZ a good chance here after he ran really well twice in Cheltenham handicaps considering his inexperience. There are dangers in this contest however with Faustinovick who has twice run well while suggesting better to come and Blackfinch who was unlucky in defeat latest chief among them.
