In depth

Verdict

LUCKY ROBIN is equally at home over fences and hurdles and won off a pound higher mark over the smaller obstacles at Sedgefield in September. Presuming Ed is the obvious danger having followed up a track and trip victory with a second off this mark at Leicester. The Raven's Return may be best of the rest ahead of the disappointing The Twisler.
