Verdict

A facile winner over the extended 2m here last time out, it's going to be hard to stop THE CRAFTYMASTER from going in again, even under a 5lb penalty. Billy Loughnane gets the leg up on Beverley second Havachoc, which could make a difference, and don't give up on Mick The Hat just yet, despite him finishing tailed off when sent off favourite last time.

Top Tip: The Craftymaster (1)
Watch out for: Havachoc (3)

Having scored in fine style over 2m at the course last time, THE CRAFTYMASTER looks to hold a fine chance of following up under a penalty with the drop in trip now issue. Havachoc finished a good second at Beverley latest and appears the main danger off the same mark, while a good run from the 3yo Mick The Hat wouldn't surprise with his penultimate run at Ffos Las giving him a squeak.
