In depth
Verdict
A winner at Ludlow in November, JAYO TIME went close back at the same track last time. Dropping down a grade for this he is preferred to Ut Majeur Aulmes, who faces a tougher task than when runner-up at Wincanton on Boxing Day where Bullet Street unseated early on. Cash And Go also drops in class after placing at Sandown and should go well while Helium has a shout on collateral form with selection. Wings Of Smoke and Enjoy Responsibly won last summer but have both been well beaten subsequently.
