With two of the runners looking to have a limited chance given what they have shown so far this should involve the three major players with the ever-improving THEATRE LEGEND taken to win again despite having to cope with a double penalty; his handicap form suggests he is well up to the task. The manner in which Ferrobin stopped on the run-in last time at Warwick suggested a problem although the trip could have just been too far but he does come here under a cloud. Santani failed to win on the Flat in France but he looks more than at home over hurdles and his second to a smart type at Ludlow recently plus his win mark him down as the main danger here.
