Verdict
Hurricane Jojo has been handed an 8lb rise for his recent victory at Wexford which looks a bit excessive as he was previously beaten over 6l by SEISMIC at Clonmel. The latter is now only 4lb wose off so should confirm the form and complete a double. Massini's Trap has won twice over hurdles but never on the Flat though he hasn't had many runs and looks reasonably treated. Streak, a winner for David Lanigan at Lingfield, was behind Hurricane Jojo at Wexford but that didn't look his running and he's expected to do better. Musawama has won over hurdles, fences and on the all-weather so a mark of 70 doesn't look too much of a problem in this moderate contest.
