AtR form verdict in comparison.
FIDELIO VALLIS makes his handicap debut off what looks a useful mark. Paul Nicholls' gelding was placed in Listed company over timber at this track and has arguably improved for the switch to fences, winning races at Fontwell and Southwell by wide margins. Topofthecotswolds reverts to chasing after some useful displays over timber, while Shut The Box won nicely enough at Newbury last time and could make an impact in this.
Top Tip: FIDELIO VALLIS (2)
Watch out for: TOPOFTHECOTSWOLDS (4)
