In depth
Verdict
Maxi Jazz was second at Market Rasen in September but reverted to type at Huntingdon last month so this may rest between the two recent winners Regaby and KAPHUMOR. The former was successful over course and distance 12 days ago and is only 4lb higher but the latter, who made all at Hexham last time, has more scope having had only three runs over the larger obstacles.
