Verdict

FIDDLERONTHEROOF has made a good start in this discipline and chased home another fine prospect in a decent time at Newbury 3 weeks ago. There is more to come from him and he can resume winning ways with the forecast deep ground firmly in his favour. There is a big performance over fences in Betfair Hurdle winner Pic d'Orhy and he's feared most ahead of Allart.
