Verdict

Majed looks to have been found a simple opportunity to continue on the winning tarck. The gelding from the Paul Nicholls yard won well last time out when defeating Alpine Slave and although he is dropping in distance he is taken to make all and win again with conditions in his favour. Harrycone Lewis rates the main danger on his win in a class D chase a couple of runs ago but he pulled up last time out and can not be backed with any confidence. Jazz Du Forez was third behind Begsy's Bullet last time and has place claims on that but he will need to improve to defeat the selection Majed.
