Verdict

JERRASH, a winner here over hurdles, looks the type to make a chaser and can give the weight away to the largely-disappointing Any News and Farouk De Cheneau, who has changed stables since last seen in October. Glengeever is another making his chasing bow but he’s had wind surgery since pulled up at Kempton in January.
