Verdict

Millenium Mag, Dere Lyn and Fabulous Jet make most appeal in this handicap chase and the vote goes to Millenium Mag. The selection unseated his rider at Uttoxeter last time but he ran a blinder previously at Huntingdon behind Oiseau De Nuit. If he can reproduce that effort here then he will be hard to beat. Dere Lyn put in an improved effort at Chepstow last time behind Jungleland, he goes on the ground and he has the cheek-pieces on which is another big plus for him. Fabulous Jet is another that will handle the ground and he can be forgiven a disappointing effort last time when he raced too keenly for his own good. This bigger field may help him settle and he is worth considering. Jupon Vert should again run his race, but we prefer the claims of Millenium Mag who gets our nomination.
