Verdict

HITCHING JACKING shaped as if a step up in trip would suit when an excellent second over 19.9f at Uttoxeter last time and he gets the narrow vote in what looks set to be a well-contested listed event. Makin'yourmindup is a danger and Regal Blue can't be ignored with improvement on the cards.
