Verdict
CONUNDRUM was easy to back here last month but belied his SP with a smooth-travelling performance and he was a worthy winner. He remains relatively unexposed over hurdles and can overcome the obligatory 6lb rise in a weak finale. Shabba Dada Do continues to disappoint but Getaway Jewel has placed in his last three and has solid each-way claims again. Click And Collect may be best of the rest but is starting to run out of time.
