Verdict

Mister Newby did a bit better last time at Towcester but is still 6lb higher than when springing a surprise at Newbury in March. Wicked Spice steps out of novice company off the back of a poor run at Kelso while stablemate Streams Of Whiskey is probably having a confidence-booster. The handicapper appears to have a firm grip on veteran Solway Sam and Frontier Vic has been creeping up the weights despite not winning, though should be thereabouts again. ORBY'S MAN hasn't done a lot wrong since winning a Worcester maiden hurdle in September. He gets a tentative vote today as he probably has more scope than the majority of his rivals.
