Verdict
This may be a bit more competitive than the first division. Blackjacktennessee can improve on his fourth at Ffos Las but HARRY THE NORSEMAN was first past the post at Uttoxeter last month only to be disqualified for mistakenly missing out the second last - he can gain compensation here. Zoran could figure if taking to fences but Sir Jack West didn’t find much off the bridle here 12 days ago having won over track and trip the time before. The Eminent Goose still has bags of scope, however.
