Verdict
Whatdoesthefoxsay does not have a great record on returning from a break so his absence since winning at Cartmel last July is a concern, though he is only 3lb higher. Jac The Legend continues to disappoint over hurdles and fences while both of Redkalani’s victories so far have come on soft going. GRAND ENTERPRISE won over 3m on good ground at Doncaster in January and has also been placed over further this season, though has struggled off higher marks since - his turn may have come around again.
