Verdict

Power Pack Jack has done well since returning from injury this autumn, winning at Perth and Carlisle. He likes to race prominently, however, and may find it tough to dominate over this marathon trip. There is probably more to come from Diamond Brook this term following a promising comeback over 3m here last month, while blinkers and a slight easing in the weights could spark a revival in Quazy de Joie. Wincanton third Tarateeno has plenty of stamina, while Incentivise has won over 3m6f and will be all the better for his recent fourth at Bangor. But we'll take a chance that a return to his favourite track will inspire DRYBROOK BEDOUIN to put his best foot forward. Nick Mitchell's stayer beat Pass Me By over 3m6f here in April having finished ahead of Shaking Hands over C&D earlier. Dusty Dane could also run well at decent odds.
