Verdict
JPR One has made a winning reappearance in both of the last two seasons. He makes his chasing bow but is no forlorn hope being potentially well treated. MONVIEL, who also won first-time up last season, was beaten three lengths by Iceo in the Imperial Cup at Sandown in March but is 14lb better having a first run over fences. He must have a good chance of turning the tables even though the latter was impressive here at the start of the month..
