Ben Haslam has coaxed Jerrysback back to his best but a further 10lb rise may thwart the hat-trick bid. Rapid Flight has won four of his five starts here this year and is only a six-year-old but stablemate Dressedforsuccess is also a course specialist, though 8lb higher than when landing this 12 months ago. The Vollan was beaten in a match at Worcester last week and seems best at Southwell. STREETS OF DOYEN was behind Jerrysback at Uttoxeter in June but is 11lb better off. He gives the impression he is capable of better than he’s shown so far over fences.
