Verdict

This looks wide open but Ben Clarke's A PERFECT DAY rates just the pick of the weights and remains with few miles on the clock so is taken to go 3-5 at the chief expense of hat-trick seeking Stone's Throw who rates a big threat. In-form top-weight Gowel Road seems sure to be on the premises back in handicap company, while Ambion View, King Of The Lake and Keable also need factoring in too.

A Perfect Day (Ire) silk

Lightly-raced son of Westerner who made a winning start over hurdles at Wincanton in 2024. Off 12 months but has improved sent handicapping this winter, scoring at Lingfield before good third of 10 back at Wincanton (3m) last month. Remains quite unexposed and a likely player off an unchanged mark.

Stone's Throw silk

Scored at Southwell in December and progressed again when following up in 3m handicap at Doncaster 54 days ago. Well on top at the finish there so can make his presence felt in his hat-trick bid despite a 7 lb weights rise.

Gowel Road (Ire) silk

Smart hurdler who gamely landed Cleeve Hurdle at Cheltenham last January. Good fourth of 6 to Ma Shantou in same 3m contest four weeks ago so he's not taken lightly back in handicap company.
