Verdict

This is an interesting little contest but debutant Isobar's long absence from the track will surely count against him. Stablemate Dr Dalwhinny only found one too good on his hurdles bow here last month while Sky Khan has been taking on better opposition and has claims on his second to Life And Soul at Aintree. Experimentalist won over a longer trip at Fontwell last month but Danehill Dante probably has a bit to find on what he's shown so far. RENEGOTIATE also has a bit to find on the form book but ran very well for a long way behind two previous winners at Worcester a couple of weeks ago and will strip fitter here. He may go close at reasonable odds.
