    Verdict

    Denny Kerrell has a career record of 0-14 but looks to have found his level after a close second at Towcester, only his second start over fences. Code Of Law is another who has never won but has gone close over fences on a couple of occasions and should be thereabouts again. Goonjim ran a shocker at Stratford but his earlier efforts put him in the picture though the vote goes to SPOCK, five times a winner over fences and successful over slightly further on this track the last time he dropped into this level.
