Race preview
Bottom-weight My Noble Lord built on a couple of relatively promising efforts to score at Uttoxeter and has the scope to progress further, but a chance can be taken on PRAIRIE WOLF. The nine-year-old was successful at Aintree on Boxing Day and will find this easier than the premier handicap he contested at Cheltenham next time, where he was perhaps out of his depth. Sunnyvilla might not be far away either.
