Verdict

Course specialist Treehouse was still in touch when falling here last week and could figure if that tumble hasn't left its mark. Man Of Principles' only victory so far under Rules came over C&D in March while Fog Patches has been placed in his last two starts, though doesn't appear to be improving. SHEEPCLOSE belied his generous starting price to finish a close-up third at Sedgefield last month and a repeat of that effort here would probably suffice as Whisky Galore returns from a lengthy absence and veterans Panthers Run and Lindseyfield Lodge have lost their way lately.
