Verdict
The Big Jetaway and THE GALAHAD KID should dominate the finish of this. The former, 3-4 over fences, has proved a better chaser than hurdler but has placed four times over the smaller obstacles and, in receipt of 7lb, should make a race of it with the latter who was cosy winner at Stratford latest having already won two points and two bumpers.
