Verdict
Mega Double has placed in three of her four hurdle starts with her only comparative failure coming in a handicap when returning from a break. She is one of the more likely winners of this but Gordon Elliott makes few mistakes here and CATS FOR CASH has shown more than enough to suggest he’s capable of taking a race like this. Turbo won a bumper last year but has been largely disappointing over hurdles and fences. Jaillissant is related to winners on the Flat but is making his racecourse debut.
