Verdict

WITHAM RIVER can be expected to appreciate dropping back in trip here having contested handicaps at around 2m the last twice, and he earns the vote in a trappy-looking contest. Well Planted has slipped to a dangerous mark and will be a danger to all if on-song, but he was well down the field over hurdles at Cartmel on Sunday and Graces Quest, who arrives here in good heart, is feared most.
