SMACKWATER JACK caught the eye reappearing from an absence of just over 2 years when fifth at Chepstow earlier this month, seeming to finish with running left. With this step back up in trip in his favour and an experienced amateur booked, Olly Murphy's charge is fancied to come out on top. Hold The Note finally took advantage of a much-reduced mark here earlier this month so he heads up the dangers, ahead of Camp Belan and Morozov Cocktail.
