Verdict

TARBECK weakened quickly and was pulled up on his reappearance at Newbury but that was his first start for almost a year and he'll strip fitter here. Charlie Longsdon's gelding is lightly-raced and has winning form over 2m6f so this trip should be within his range and he could be a bit of value here. Sydney Paget aims to bounce back from a fall over fences at Kelso while Well Hello There never figured at Southwell last month, though is another who will have benefited from the outing. Sixty Something won over the trip at Aintree in October but ran a shocker at Haydock subsequently while One Term has his stamina to prove and has been in the handicapper's grip for a while.
