There doesn’t look as much depth to this division as the previous one and it’s hard to shy away from ANYWAYYOULOOKATIT who showed plenty of promise on his chasing debut over 4f shorter when a fast-finishing second to one who has since won again. Midnight Magic often flatters to deceive and did so again here last time and a similar display is expected today with Jack Snipe preferred as the main danger. It remains to be seen if Hidden Cargo runs after his modest 4th at Cartmel yesterday but he does look vulnerable of his mark even if he does run. West To Crossgales and Honourmission have both shown some ability over fences but will do to be winning this.
