Resumed winning ways at Warwick (21f) in December but well held both completed starts since, falling early at Newbury in February. Given a short break and this is a drop back in class.

Listed bumper winner who made third hurdles start a winning one in December. Didn't pack the same punch in the finish (raced freely) when third of 5 over 2½m at Sandown in January and also well held in a better handicap over that C&D latest.

Better than ever and value for extra too when off the mark for the season at Leicester (2m) in November. Respectable efforts 2 of 3 completed starts before unseating rider at Kempton. This unlikely to be a searching test but has stamina for this far to prove.

First-time tongue strap seemingly the catalyst for a stouter finishing effort when notching his fourth success over hurdles at Plumpton (21f) last month. Another sound effort when third at Wincanton and having won this race last year he looks set for another good run.

Taunton bumper winner who landed a novice hurdle at that track (third attempt) in January. Shade disappointing back there (19f) last time but in the right hands as he now goes up further in trip now handicapping.

Unexposed 6-y-o followed up his Wincanton success with a minimum of fuss under a penalty at Ludlow last time. Yard excels with this type and high hopes he can improve again to land the hat-trick.

Analyst's Verdict

JACKOMY is really going the right way now and while a 10 lb rise for his Ludlow success asks for more, he may well be up completing the hat-trick. Valadon won this last year and looks a rock-solid opponent, while Calvino may improve for this step up in trip now handicapping.

Betting Forecast : 2/13 Jackomy, 7/24.5 Calvino, 4/15 Valadon, 17/29.5 He's A Latchico, 10/111 Precious Metal, 12/113 Yellow Star
