Verdict
A P McCoy returns to race-riding after a few days off and can start back with a winner on board MANJAKANI. After making a winning debut over hurdles at Stratford, John Ferguson's gelding was only beaten a head by the in-form Rolling Maul at Newton Abbot and faces nothing of that one's calibre here. He gets 7lb from the hat-trick seeking Alderbrook Lad, who gives Fontwell scorer Hazzaat 10lb but still makes more appeal than the four-year-old. Desert Robe was returning from a lengthy absence when only beaten a head at Towcester and is open to plenty of improvement.
