Bring Us Paradise is just a pound higher than when winning the race a year ago though has been running poorly. Jamie Spencer takes the ride on Little Jo, who has won from much higher marks than this in the past and is greatly respected. Beautiful Chaos has been narrowly beaten in her last two starts but keeps going up without winning so the one to beat may be FINAL ORDERS. From the in-form Gavin Cromwell yard, he won a course and distance handicap in July and has since returned to the track and landed a handicap hurdle.
