Verdict

Plenty of familiar faces in opposition with a chance taken on 2019 Ladbrokes Trophy hero DE RASHER COUNTER. His latest pair of efforts are best overlooked, and his previous exploits this campaign read well in the context of this race, so it would come as no surprise to see him go close. Mister Malarky, who filled the runner-up spot for the third time in his last 4 starts at Exeter recently, and Musselburgh-scorer Cyclop head the dangers.
