Verdict
JAMHOORI will be at short odds here which is hardly surprising given he's a long way clear on official ratings. He ran well in a handicap here in February after winning two of his three previous races at Wolverhampton. The consistent What A Party is rated 20lb lower yet receives just 8lb but looks the main threat despite a recent defeat in a seller. Crashing Thew Life has been running poorly over hurdles and has yet to reach a place in nine career starts while Boston Blue finished last in a chase at Leicester last month.
