Verdict
An interesting four-runner race. Jour J won over course and distance last season but didn't look straightforward next time. Catching him fresh could be the answer. Last year's Charisma Gold Cup runner-up seems to have two ways of running but is not too badly handicapped at best. Dunston Bill is 5lbs higher than for his Market Rasen win. Imaginaire won a Stratford novice chase pretty well and has not been disgraced since but can make mistakes. Jour J Might just get his own way in front and gets the selection.
