Verdict

POTTERS CHARM was reported to be heading straight to the Festival after his top-level success at Aintree on Boxing Day but, clearly in top order at home, Nigel Twiston-Davies' 6-y-o can add another graded victory to his CV and maintain his unbeaten record under Rules. Bill Joyce lost his unbeaten record over hurdles in the Grade 1 Challow last month but remains with potential, while wide-margin Carlisle winner Gamesters Guy can edge out the undefeated Kdeux Saint Fray for minor honours.
