It’s fair to say that NIGHT JET has already had plenty of chances but he is nevertheless appealing in a race of this nature. Indeed, he at least arrives here in good form whereas many of his rivals have questions to answer for one reason or another. Home And Dry could be a threat on his handicap debut in this sphere and is second choice ahead ofWalkinthecotswolds, for whom there was a valid excuse at Ffos Las last time, andTaritino

LANESBOROUGH readily surpassed the form shown in maidens and almost overcame an unfavourable position when a strong finishing second on handicap debut at Hereford 2 weeks ago He’s one to be firmly interested in on the back of that effort with the step up in trip here also expected to suit. Rula Bula rates a big threat following her listed Newbury second, with last-time-out winner Castelfort and King ofThe Road others considered in a competitive heat.
