Verdict
Gift Of Raaj won four times on the Flat but is going jumping late in life. However, he did land a novice event at Doncaster last month and isn’t highly tried on his handicap debut. Wilhelm Vonvenster and Starvoski are still out of sorts but Dickens is improving with experience and Superstylin has placed the last twice in this grade, though never looked like winning on either occasion. INFERNO SACREE has won his last three at Plumpton with the proverbial ton in hand and can defy a further 9lb hike in the ratings if translating that form to this easier track.
