Race preview
Point-to-point winner WEAKFIELD was slightly disappointing when sent off favourite for a Carlisle bumper on his NH debut earlier in the month, but the demands of this race should be much more to his liking (obstacles and a longer trip) and an improved effort is forecast. Hitman Fred ran third behind a subsequent winner at Hexham last time and he is likely to give another good account, while Drumlee Watar and Minella Bobo also merit consideration.
