      In depth

      Verdict

      Saga De Tercey won this under a penalty for Donald McCain in 2012 and LOVELY JOB can follow suit. He scored at Newcastle in January and should have the measure of Film Director. But the latter's stablemate Ice 'N' Easy may prove a tougher nut to crack as he returns to hurdling having won his penultimate start over fences at Southwell last year. Landmarque was still beaten a distance when third at Catterick recently and the remaining pair are even harder to fancy.
