Luggers Hall has run well enough in slightly better company to suggest he will go close while Extra Steps has been mainly consistent in handicaps and is likely to be in the firing-line. Jouster had been looking as though there was a race in him before a poor run at Sligo where he was soon struggling. That wasn't his true form and he should get involved but Dermot Weld tries HISAABAAT in blinkers for the first time and his recent close third behind Black Belt over the C&D wouldn't need improving on to take this.
