Jamaaron is preferred to Lowsha Green and St Pancras. Jamaaron hacked up in a selling race at Stratford and while it is not always advisable to take selling form too seriously when in non-selling grade, it was clear from flagfall that he was much superior to his rivals on that occasion and the BHB handicapper appears to have him clear on this instance. Lowsha Green made all at Hexham on his latest start. The second in that race would have won at Sedgefield on Friday had he not unshipped the rider at the last. St Pancras would have rated as a certainty if this were a flat race but it isn't and he has a bit to prove after a flop at Market Rasen. The Bonus King is a light of former days while Laconicos is not totally out of this on some of his better hurdling form. Jamaaron has been found an obvious opportunity in a modest affair and we shall not oppose.
