    Verdict

    Corinto opened his account over hurdles with victory in a lower grade at Market Rasen but has an 1llb hike in the weights to contend with. By contrast, VIVE LE ROI (NAP) drops in class after running well for a long way up against much higher-rated opposition in Grade 2 company here last time and Tony Carroll’s charge gets another chance on his earlier success at Newbury. Flashjack has failed to build on November’s short-head defeat at Ffos Las though is still preferred to Kayf Moss, who won at Uttoxeter nearly a year ago but reverted to his more usual poor form on his reappearance.
