Verdict
Rear Admiral hasn't done much under Rules but has made great strides in point-to-points and comes here on a very lenient mark. Bocamix ran a shocker here in October but has since won on the Flat so shouldn't be dismissed nor should Ritsi despite being inconsistent as it's his turn to produce a better effort. STAGECOACH JASPER has had just four runs and was staying on strongly over the minimum trip at Uttoxeter last time so this should prove ideal and he's handed the vote. Swaledale Lad has the scope to do better and found 2m6f beyond him on his latest start in May.
