Four last time out winners amongst the field of nine assembled here and perhaps TOTAL ASSETS makes most appeal of the quartet. He took the return to hurdling in his stride at Kelso recently and should be able to cope with the demands of a 6lb hike no problem now. Midnight Request is feared most having won easily over C&D last month and then followed up carry an extra 9lb at Towcester. He should go well despite his latest hike. Askamore Darsi and Fresh By Nature also obliged recently at Sedgefield and Uttoxeter respectively but neither is reliable in terms on consistency. Very First Time ran well here in December and can be given a chance off the same mark now, despite some poor runs since.
