Verdict

A few of these offer potential but the vote goes to BARON NOIR who holds the clear edge on form and looked to have something left in the tank when going in at Uttoxeter last time out. Dan Skelton's new recruit Gambino was a fairly useful winner on the Flat and could emerge as the main danger starting out in this sphere, although Wincanton scorer Swingin Safari and Nigel and Willy Twiston-Davies' pair The Egyptian Ginge and Shabalko d'Herm can't be discounted either.
