Verdict

Kiltealy Briggs has won twice this season but was pulled up in the Ultima at Cheltenham last month. Il Ridoto ran in the Grand Annual at The Festival but weakened quickly off the final turn. Jacamar got back to winning ways at Leicester but looks up against it on these terms. Having been highly tried after winning at Warwick in the autumn, DO YOUR JOB defied a big weight in handicap company at Newcastle five weeks ago and can take advantage of the 5lb he receives from Minella Drama, who is penalised for a Grade 2 success at Haydock in January.
