325 Wincanton-Scoop The Pot is totally unexposed and what it produced last time over shorter already puts it top of the ratings here and with improvement likely with experience and the step up in trip,its clearly the one to beat for a yard that have a 21% strike rate over hurdles here.

Unless Paul Nicholls finds the key to Rothman then the main danger for me is Richard Newland`s Top Cat Henry.

Its only had 1 run for this yard and although that wasnt a great run,i would expect better here over shorter and on better ground.

Back Scoop The Pot 16pts at 3.25-4th(-16pts)Very well backed but hurdling was poor and never really travelling.The winner was nicely backed.
