Verdict
Rachael Blackmore teamed-up with BABY JAKE to win last year’s renewal off a 3lb lower mark. A recent second at Fakenham suggests Shark Hanlon's raider can make another bold bid. Holryale has been well beaten despite finishing runner-up the last twice while Chozen has been raised 6lb for winning at Carlisle though that’s negated by his rider’s allowance. Becky Smith’s claim could see Tyrell figure in proceedings while Fool To Cry went close at Warwick before struggling at Cheltenham last month. Star Foot landed a double at Market Rasen during the summer and Nefyn Bay should be sharper for a recent comeback run.
