Verdict
STEEL WAVE makes a quick reappearance under a penalty having beaten a more competitive field at Stratford a couple of days ago and the veteran can go in again. Sharp Note drops down in trip raised 6lb on the back of a victory at Newton Abbot but Uttoxeter runner-up Fraterculus has yet to win after a total of 21 attempts over hurdles and fences. Touch Tight has had just a couple of starts over fences and placed over track and trip last month when Lough Salt unseated.
