      Verdict

      APARTMAN, Silver Story and Vic's World are the three to catch the eye here, with Apartman having what seems a straightforward opportunity. Vic's World has failed to complete in three of her last four starts, but she does have ability and cannot be discounted. Silver Story was still in touch when unseating his rider here last time, and earlier efforts suggest he can play a part, though his jumping needs to improve. Paul Nicholls does not have many runners at this time of year, and he saddles Apartman, who will strip fitter for his first race in a year. His earlier quality when scoring in a classy Ayr hurdle suggests a clear round will see him home here. Apartman can land his first success over fences on his chasing bow.
