Verdict
James Jet won an Irish point in November and was impeded on his hurdling bow at Ascot so better is expected. Winning bumper Norton Hill started favourite for a Fontwell handicap in December and was travelling well enough when falling four out. ST PATRICKS BRIDGE attempted to make all at Taunton in December but had no answer when the odds-on Lallygag went past. The winner has continued in good form so Fergal O'Brien's charge gets the nod to go one better. Wideeyedandlegless, a winner between the flags, should be scoring soon though could find this on the short side.
