Verdict
Although SKYCUTTER let favourite-backers down at Southwell, his third was still a big improvement on what he had shown in other recent starts. The eight-year-old isn't the most reliable but a race of this nature should be well within his compass, not least because he's been rated much higher in the past. Chelmsford victor Captain Robert merits consideration, as does veteran Billy Bathgate, and Prince Quattro is well worth a second look too.
Expert View Verdict
It can't be said consistency is a strong suit but Skycutter is certainly on a favourable mark and there was much more encouragement in his last-time-out Southwell third. He's been eased another 1lb and should go close if building on it but CAPTAIN ROBERT is preferred. The James Fanshawe-trained 4yo overcame interference when gaining a breakthrough win at Chelmsford last time and seems fairly treated off just 4lb higher. Prince Quattro has discovered his best form and needs respecting also having run well over C&D last time.
