Verdict

DEAFENING SILENCE bumped into a thrown-in rival on return and shaped really well when third in the Welsh National last time, arguably just paying the price late for pressing on with the Gold Cup-bound Haiti Couleurs. He can gain a deserved first win of the season here, though Myretown remains potentially very well treated if his jumping holds up trying this marathon trip for the first time. Holokea is steadily progressive and can make his presence felt in this higher grade.
