Verdict

Having created a very favourable impression on chase debut at Carlisle, THE JUKEBOX KID didn't look at home going left-handed at Cheltenham last month but returned to this configuration, he's well worth another chance. Laganhill has a bigger performance in him over fences so is feared most, though In d'Or is expected to step up on last month's reappearance.

  2. LAGANHILL
