Gentleman James was far from convincing when scoring at Market Rasen but still finished ahead of Wisecracker and Jacobite Rising. Reverse The Charge likes it here but is having a first run since winning here in May. Roll Of Thunder is 6lb better off than when third to RINGARINGAROSIE over course and distance in June but Martin Todhunter’s mare is fancied to confirm running as she’d had a couple of months off before going close at Sedgefield last week. Winning pointer Teeton Power is still awaiting a first victory over fences but did win a maiden hurdle at Worcester 12 days ago.
