Forecasts

Movewiththetimes (11/8), Jameson (7/4), Coo Star Sivola (4/1), Kalondra (10/1)

Not a lot separates these on paper and it might prove that the booking of Davy Russell can sway things in favour of JAMESON. He was attempting to defy a 10lb hike when finishing second at Newbury last time and might well have done so but for clattering the fourth last fence. His new rider can speed up his education over these obstacles and is more than capable of getting the tactics spot on around here. Movewiththetimes shaped well behind Finian's Oscar here last month and isn't to be underestimated receiving 5lb from the selection. He should uphold form with Coo Star Sivola while Kalondra also has plenty potential, but the form of his yard (0-33) is off-putting.
