This won’t take much winning and JACK THE LAIRD would have every chance if bouncing back from a poor run when favourite at Leicester with an earlier win having come on Tapeta at Wolverhampton. K'gari Spirit was third here at the start of the month while Give Us A Belle only found one too good at Yarmouth last week. Red Invader is eased in grade but has finished last in each of his last three runs and is still 8lb higher than when successful over track and trip in June of last year.
