oddschecker Verdict
Morning Mayhem has continued to improve since his Cartmel victory in August, with runner-up efforts in more competitive events at Market Rasen and Chepstow. That said, the step back up in trip could prove to be a concern and CROOKED PATH, who was third at the Lincolnshire venue, has every chance of reversing the form. James Owen's gelding won over 2m3f at Fontwell last week and a 2lb rise may well be on the lenient side. John Barbour and Sunny South West appeal most of the remainder.
Prediction: 1st Crooked Path, 2nd Morning Mayhem, 3rd John Barbour
