A high drawn can be a huge advantage here and the speedy That Man Again and Doctor Dennis are respected for that reason alone. However, Jools has the advantage on the official figures for the race and it will be no surprise to see him cope with these terms and victoriously concede weight to all bar one of his rivals. The David Evans-trained five-year-old has been hard to place in handicaps of his current mark and has thus been hard to win with. But today's easier contest should see him in a better light and Jools can return to winning ways today. Stagnite and Sussex Lad are frustrating horses to follow but will also be interesting if supported.
