Verdict

AUREA FORTUNA is coming good now and the way he won back over fences at Punchestown last time makes him of strong interest once again. Jubilee Express was seen only twice last season but proved he can go well fresh with an excellent second in the Welsh National in December. Kelce was a close fourth in a similar event over C&D on return and looks set for another good campaign.
