Verdict

The jump jockeys take over the reins in this novelty handicap with Leighton Aspell having a good chance on C'EST NO MOUR. The latter finished in front of Hollywood Road when winning an amateurs' race over track and trip and is only 3lb higher. Jamie Moore has won this on more than one occasion and rides Altaayil, who won on the all-weather back in 2015, the last time he raced on the Flat. Cordite won here recently and is preferred to Croquembouche, who scored at Pontefract on his latest start.
