Verdict
Big Jimbo has finished second on the Flat since his third at Bangor and is aiming to give Gary Moore a third win in this in four years, though has something to find with Sedgefield runner-up Talking About You on collateral form. Topkapi Star made a winning start at Uttoxeter but ORCHESTRAL RAIN can make a winning start for Richard Newland having finished third at Roscommon last month when trained by Willie McCreery. Highlander Madrik was a stayer on the Flat in France but may need the experience and Nyah is Flat bred.
