Verdict
A competitive handicap but Olly Murphy's HENRYSBROTHERJACK ended last season very much on the up and is taken to return in style with his yard firmly among the winners. Diamatiste shaped well on his reappearance when a C&D fourth and heads the list of dangers, although handicap debutant Jakar du Moulin and the reliable Ri Na Cuirte also need factoring in.

VerdictResumed winning ways at Ffos Las in January but went in snatches when a below-form sixth of 12 in handicap at Uttoxeter (23.3f, good to soft) in March. Still can't be ruled out on return with his yard going really well.- 3. Jakar Du MoulinJ: Jay TidballT: Paul NichollsF: 24U-

VerdictPoint winner who has shown promise in a trio of maiden hurdles, disputing lead when carried left and unseated rider 2 out at Chepstow (23.6f, good to firm) in April. Much respected on his return/handicap debut after wind surgery. - 4. HenrysbrotherjackJ: Lewis StonesT: Olly MurphyF: 460/01511-

VerdictA three-time winner who ended last term firmly on the up, smoothly bagging 3m handicap at Perth in April. Open to further improvement on his reappearance despite an 8 lb hike so is a likely player.

VerdictConsistent sort but he was blinkered for the 1st time when a below-par fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Warwick (26f, good to firm) 55 days ago. The sort to bounce back though.

VerdictResurgent in blinkers at the end of last season, completing a hat-trick at Haydock (3m) in April. Shaped as if in need of the run when a fading sixth of 9 in handicap at Newton Abbot (21.6f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Can take a step forward now.

VerdictA fair maiden hurdler but he could never land a blow when ninth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (20f, good to soft) 20 days ago. This longer trip should suit so he can't be discounted.
