High Jinx was odds-on for a race at Aintree last night and is unlikely to be lining up here if he fulfilled that engagement. That should leave the way clear for Plumpton winner CRUSHED to return to winning ways after he found a slightly longer trip too far at Cartmel. Placedela Concorde was a 66/1 chance when scoring at Kelso and doesn’t look an obvious candidate to follow up under a penalty but Macardle may not have got home when favourite over 2m4f here last time. Calach’s second in a bumper at Ayr came on heavy going.
