In depth

Verdict

The Juggler was still beaten four lengths when runner-up at Kempton in November while Ted's Brother was beaten even further when second at Wolverhampton last month. REGAL GAIT won over a slightly shorter trip here in October and has been placed over hurdles on three occasions since then. He was due to run at Exeter yesterday but remains unexposed on the Flat and may well go in again off a 5lb higher mark if turning up. Shrubland has also been hurdling and found one too good over 2m here when last on the Flat but Blue Valentino has not raced since 2014 when runner-up at Wolverhampton.
