Verdict
Huzzah would have made short work of these in his prime but it's more than four years since he was last in the winner's enclosure. Both Memphis Man and The Jailer are in the veteran's stage now while Cadmium Loch was tailed off at Wolverhampton last month and is likely to find this ground much too soft. SET TO GO should start at decent odds as he hasn't raced since a close-up fourth over C&D in May but he goes well here and should be thereabouts with Brendan Powell taking off 5lb if handling the going.
