In depth

Verdict

Fuzzy Logic is on a hat-trick over hurdles but hasn't raced since last summer. Bedouin Bay hasn't shown his best in his last two starts while Rugged Jack finished tailed off over a longer trip at Huntingdon after winning over 2m1f here earlier and is still climbing the weights. Jigsaw Financial might need this but will enjoy the ground, as will BOSS IN BOOTS. Seamus Mullins' charge won over track and trip in December and was taking on better company in subsequent starts. He still isn't badly treated on his overall form. Back In June has been handicapped on his second at Newton Abbot on his hurdling debut and is likely to find things tough.
