In depth
Verdict
JUST THE JOB is well treated under a 7lb penalty based on his runaway success last time out so should really be going in again. The selection beat the consistent Spiders Boy, over 12 lengths, in a similar race on that last run and he looks the standout. Sumner hasn't had much success on the level recently but has looked progressive in two runs over hurdles this season and has strong claims on those. Ruby Valentine can go well having slipped to a nice mark and displayed better form the last twice while Stage Right could feature if continuing on an upward curve this term. A tricky finale but Just The Job looks really well treated.
