Verdict

IMPOSE TOI has made good strides subsequent to winning a C&D handicap at this meeting 12 months ago and, judged on his reappearance success under a big weight at Aintree, he still appears to be improving. The 7-y-o can take this step up in class in his stride and could yet develop into a candidate for the Stayers' Hurdle in March. Last year's winner Strong Leader got the better of Take No Chances at Wetherby at the beginning of the month and he is the main danger. Hewick also has claims.
