        Verdict

        Despite a double penalty, NORTHOFTHEWALL is clearly going to take some stopping as he’s shown himself capable over longer trips since winning his maiden over 2m here in December. Hurdling debutant Chazza is probably the danger having added a Bangor bumper to his victory in a point last year. Donladd has been off the track for 12 months and had wind surgery so is best watched while Bretney was well behind the selection at Taunton.
