Verdict
Go Fox will be fancied to follow up a first success over fences at Fakenham but this looks a bit more competitive and he’s gone up 7lb. Pleasure Garden found only one too good at Plumpton after winning at Fontwell but Restandbethankful has been struggling for form for a while. JET OF DREAMS (NAP), who won his sole start between the flags, showed ability over hurdles but will almost certainly prove better over fences and Dylan Kitts takes off a handy 7lb.
