Verdict

Dan Skelton's new recruit MAESTRO CONTI looked a good prospect when a ready winner on his debut at Moulins and is fancied to make light of a 5 lb penalty and go 2-2 here. Mickey Bowen's Whatsgoingonmarvin brings plenty of potential to this sphere and could emerge as the main danger, although Zarakerjack should build on his recent C&D second and can also have a say.
