ITTACK BLUE jumped fluently when outclassing the opposition over C&D a fortnight ago, and in the hope this doesn't come too soon (very lightly raced) he's fancied to follow up. Reach For The Moon failed to meet expectations on hurdles debut but given his Flat form, he'll surely do better this time and is the obvious threat.
