Verdict

Some decent performers meet in this although overall the event rather lacks any depth and it may not take as much winning as some other events on the card. Wolf Sword has the look of one who should have won more over fences as he jumps well but often fails to finish his race off. Upsilon Bleu is back off his last winning mark after finding the Festival far too taxing and flat left-handed tracks are probably his type of course making him a danger here. SPECIAL CATCH is a dual C&D winner though and this strong traveller should be suited by a strongly run 2m’s. Lake View Lad is probably capable of better than he has shown over fences while Archive is interesting on his first run for Brian Ellison having been a winner over fences in Ireland.
