In depth
Verdict
Final Cast looks one of his powerful yard's lesser lights but there are possibilities about Jackers and Hassadin, first and second over C&D last month when Tin Pot Man was well behind. The runner-up is slightly better off at the weights today but may still struggle to reverse the form. Reginaldinho arguably still has some scope and should find a small race somewhere but Picot De Say was beaten in a seller at Newton Abbot on his latest outing while today's ground is likely to prove too testing for Spinning Waters. MOLKO JACK is still to recapture last season's decent form in Ireland but has his favoured ground for the first time since joining Michael Mullineaux here and is taken to defy his big weight
