Juge Et Parti has had a break since pulled up twice in August but clearly has questions to answer at present. Eva's Diva appears to have lost her way and has changed stables and Piggy Winkle has a shocking record on ground with some give. Jonjoela has a poor strike-rate but has finished second twice this term, including once here. Always Able still has some scope but hopefully cheekpieces will help MADE FOR YOU, who was staying on last time at Chepstow despite hating the ground. Stablemate Todd, a course specialist, can’t be ruled out either.
