Themanfromfraam won easily here and at Worcester last month over hurdles but is rated 10lb higher over fences and is 26lb worse off than when last seen over the larger obstacles. Tin Pot Man was put up 8lb after winning at Fakenham while this may be beyond Marked Man at the age of 16. Crime Don't Pay is half his age but is only making slow progress while Lansdowne Princess is high enough in the weights at present. JOLIBOB is clearly modest but does have some ability and could finally get off the mark in this company.
