In depth
Verdict
We'll go for Jasmin Guichois here ahead of Bush Park, Wild Knight and Hiers de Brouage, but it's a tricky race to call. Running through the field. Very Very Noble is up seven from his Folkestone win. Wild Knight does not look too badly weighted based on his course and distance win in December. Bush Park is a course winner and has won from today's mark. Jasmin Guichois has been raised eight pounds following Cheltenham win in December but, with a good claimer on board, this well-regarded type looks primed to run well. Gladtoknowyou is up five for his course and distance win but also holds claims, while Hiers de Brouage is now six pounds higher than for his Exeter win last March but he too has a good claimer booked. Newick Park's winning run came to an end at Leicester last time and races off the same mark today. Once again, it's competitive but Jasmin Guichois might prove up to the task.
