Verdict

MCALPINE is still a maiden but has been quietly progressing on all his latest starts including when not outclassed when stepping up to handicap company recently at Cheltenham. Given this is not the strongest of line-ups, a reproduction of that form could see him winning for the first time. This trip may be on the short side for Sullane Hill but given his general reliability, the gelding is capable of running a big race. Lessofdnegativity certainly has ability but needs to bounce back from some below par recent runs to be involved.
