In depth

Verdict

Twentynineblack won twice over hurdles in the summer, finishing clear of The Chazer at Bangor in May, but hasn't made the expected progress over fences. A spin on the level could restore lost confidence but other make more appeal here. They include Palos Conti, a wide-margin winner over fences at Wetherby in October, and Noble Scholar. The latter was third over hurdles at Hexham last month but has something to find at the weights with stable companion PYRACANTHA, who won a Musselburgh handicap off a mark of 115 last time and was a decent performer in bumpers earlier in his career.
