Verdict

Lord Jay Jay is preferred to Missyl. Lord Jay Jay may have plenty of seconds in the locker but these are no signs of reluctance on his part as he has been unfortunate enough to run up against some decent types in the past. He lost no caste in defeat behind Openide last time out and a repeat of that form should suffice. Missyl is still a maiden although he looks sure to find a race soon. Sticky jumps cost dear at Plumpton and he can ill afford a repeat here. Rosiella is of plating class over hurdles while Dawn Frolics is rated just 64. Allez Melina has it do after an absence. Lord Jay Jay is going to be short odds but a clear round should be necessary.
