Verdict

This doesn't look as strong as the first division and we'll give another chance to GARRYLEIGH, who had King Of Glory behind when runner-up to the odds-on Fox Run at Taunton and won his point-to-point on good ground. Mister Newby would have a big chance on his second to Pendra at Plumpton in November but he ran poorly at the same track in January. John Ferguson runs point-to-point winner Now Then Charlie but he might need this while Twin Barrels has plenty to find on the book.
