GIN COCO should be sharper with his Ffos Las reappearance behind him and looks sure to make a bold bid if bouncing back to anything like the form he showed when runner-up in last season's Greatwood Hurdle. The reliable Zambezi Fix went close off this mark at Lingfield last week and is second choice ahead of Jilaijone.
