Verdict
Samuel Jackson was pulled up at Haydock on Friday. Raddon Top is having a first run over fences but went close over hurdles here on his reappearance and placed again at Chepstow last time. Southern Sam has yet to finish out of the frame over the larger obstacles but In Rem needs to sort out his jumping. LADY KK was no match for Bangers And Cash here in November but the winner went on to land the Lincolnshire National at Market Rasen on Boxing Day racing off a 9lb higher mark so that run looks better now than it did at the time. Hereford winner Party Fuzz also goes on the shortlist.
