      In depth

      Verdict

      Another low grade event which lacks strength in depth and this looks an ideal opportunity for Commanche Jim to get off the mark over fences. Robert Alner's charge makes a quick reappearance after finishing a close second on similar ground at Newton Abbot 13 days ago and should prove hard to beat off the same mark so gets the TEAMtalk vote. The Hearty Joker has been in fair form of late and gets plenty of weight from the selection but would prefer better ground while Lanmire Leader returns from a lengthy absence and Tasbok has something to prove after a poor effort last time.
