Timeform Verdict

DESERT HAVEN arrives on the back of a couple of respectable efforts last month and might be worth siding with to go one place better than in this race last year. Kazakh d'Arthel was running well when falling over fences last time and is capable of making a bold bid returned to the smaller obstacles. Ned In The Park and Bhean Saibhre, who has a decent record here, are also shortlisted.
