PUB CRAWL really should be winning races in this sphere from his lowly mark given his Flat form and having finished runner-up over C&D when last seen in October, it's worth siding with him on return. Trailblazer and Lawmans Blis seem likely to give their running, which should ensure they are bang there in this grade.
