Verdict

Dual point winner JOE COTTON could leave his previous form under Rules behind now switched to chasing and might be worth chancing. Rajjamataz shaped with some promise first time up in this sphere at Leicester and is one to note. Birdman Bob is also on the shortlist, although Time To Bite might be vulnerable after a 10 lb hit for Plumpton.
