Verdict

Here We Go can follow up last week's impressive victory, with Hot 'N'Holy, Wild Chimes, Doc Row and Businessmoney Jake all respected. At first glance a pin would come in handy here, but anyone that saw Here We Go hack up on his first start for the in-form Gary Moore at Fontwell last week will not care to oppose the four-year-old today. To say that Jamie Moore had an armchair ride is an understatement, and a seven-pound penalty is unlikely to be a burden. Granted there are many dangers, notably Hot 'N'Holy who displayed grim determination when scoring at Worcester, and Wild Chimes who beat subsequent winner Emmasflora at Market Rasen in February. Doc Row, Businessmoney Jake and Complete Outsider all line up on the back of last-time out wins, while Jaunty Times is not out of it despite his weight. All in all, this will tell us whether Here We Go's latest demolition job was just a flash in the pan, and in the belief that it was not, we return to Gary Moore's charge as the answer.
