Verdict
DO YOU KNOW WHAT is one of only two in this with previous chasing experience. He was staying on when fourth at Wincanton in October and this slightly longer trip can help him add to his one victory over hurdles ahead of fencing debutant Dancing In The Sky, who has had wind surgery since last seen. Kiruna Peak still has time on his side and Mr Dorrell Sage has hinted at ability but Court Jurado and De Barley Basket may need softer ground.
