Verdict
Winning point-to-pointer The Fresh Prince was having only his second start over fences when coming down at Aintree but was still in the lead and takes a drop in class. Master Jake stepped up to this sort of trip for the first time at Market Rasen and produced easily his best run over fences, only fading from the last. The once very useful Rennard has won seven times over fences and though not for over three years he was racing in better company last season. Dreamsoftheatre hasn't been running well though is 4lb lower than his last victory in May but this can go to THE ITALIAN YOB. Nick Williams' charge isn't a prolific winner but he's never raced in a class as low as this over fences and the drop in grade can enable him to get back on the winning trail.
