Verdict
Just A Touch, Extra Cache, and L'Etang Bleu, look the three to concentrate on in the opener and the confident vote goes to Just A Touch. The selection won well last time out when defeating Jack Fuller and although he is rising in the weights he is still unexposed over fences and has conditions to suit so he will be hard to beat. L'Etang Bleu rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Dick The Taxi but he is not the most fluent of jumpers and for that reason he is opposed on this occasion.Extra Cache is another that could go well on his latest fourth behind Sir Toby but that was over a much longer trip and he is not sure to be suited by the drop in distance. Of the remainder Javelot d'Or has the ability to go close but continues to be let down by his jumping and for the winner we return to Just A touch.
