Go Get Em Kid hasn't shown a great deal so far under Rules but still has time on his side and is dropped in grade here. Moorlands Jack is a half-brother top a couple of winning chasers and could figure on his first start over fences but it's impossible to have much faith in Fleur De Vassy, pulled up when fancied at Lingfield last month, or long-standing maiden Bob Casey. RASH MOMENT is in the veteran stage now but has won off higher marks in the past and didn't fare badly when fifth at Fontwell after a long lay-off. He could easily wind back the clock here as this is a very modest heat.
