GALWAY JACK can put a disappointing effort at Ludlow behind him by taking this hunter chase dropped in trip here. The selection is a C&D winner in handicap company and has a top amateur booked as he goes in search of his third hunter chase win of this season. Knocklong made a winning debut over regulation fences at Catterick last time out and has built up an enviable record in point-to-point company in the north in recent seasons and is taken to chase the winner home ahead of dual hunter chase winner Decade Player.
