Dazinski, an 80-plus rated stayer on the Flat, is jumping hurdles late in life but could be a factor in this if rising to the new challenge. FALCARRAGH has the best form, however, having been placed at Wetherby and Cheltenham last autumn. He's gone well fresh in the past and can finally open his account today ahead of Worcester third Staigue Fort and Ittirad, though the latter could be a real danger as a course and distance second six weeks ago should have taught him plenty and he handled any going on the Flat.
