In depth

Verdict

Rebel Benefit is another on the card due to perform at Huntingdon but he'll face a tough task if facing the starter here. Reblis continues to post a consistent account and has been dropped a further 2lb by the handicapper after his recent third placing over course and distance but has little room for improvement nowadays. Upbeat Cobbler has a mixed record over fences but is a more than useful mare in this grade on her day and was never troubled when scoring over course and distance when last seen in March. She should go close but DUSK TILL DAWN (NAP) showed a really good attitude when scoring at Newton Abbot six days ago and is taken to defy the mandatory 7lb penalty, especially as he has shown the best of his form under good conditions. Chapolimoss is likely to need the run.
