Verdict

Although beaten last time out PEREGRINE RUN should be capable of landing this contest to make up for his placed effort in last year's contest. He has been in fine form both over hurdles and fences. A win here should set him up for tackling better contests over the coming year. Jett may have to play second fiddle to the selection once again but their rivalry will be watched with interest. Jury Duty should be able to run his race and it may suit him better than his last two runs which came in the hurly burly of two Grand Nationals. Us And Them is an interesting candidate stepping up in trip.
  1. Peregrine Run
  2. Jett
  3. Jury Duty
