In depth
Verdict
Jeruflo gets the confident vote in this Amateur Riders' Handicap Chase, with Oneway and Miss Wizadora the most likely to chase our selection home. Jeruflo has plenty going for him here and has a capable pilot so looks to have solid claims. He was a disappointing favourite behind Running Machine at Folkestone earlier in the month when he reportedly had problems. Providing those are now behind him, he should go well based on the pick of his form from last season. Oneway is the one to fear most as he jumped soundly on his seasonal reappearance when third behind Wouldn't You Agree at Towcester. A reproduction of that effort could see him go close here. Miss Wizadora also holds solid claims and was a winner last time out, but she has been off the track since 2001, so her chances will be best gauged by the market confidence. Of the rest, The Eens has fair form and a capable rider so should go well, but we are happy to stick with Jeruflo.
