Verdict

SHANTOU VILLAGE was struggling when falling in a Grade 2 at Wincanton in November but a return to winning ways and a second course and victory today looks a formality if he stays on his feet. Red Hanrahan is making his chasing debut but has a won between the flags so should be suited. Moneystown has also won a point-to-point but has shown nothing under Rules so far and Touch Screen fell at Exeter after finishing second at Leicester.
