Verdict

JACK THE SAVAGE won at Huntingdon a fortnight ago and a conditional’s allowance negates a 3lb rise. Angel's Dream landed a maiden hurdle at Plumpton back in May while Polyphonic will be sharper for a recent outing at Southwell. Ace Rothstein and Bucephalus are both fit from the Flat and unexposed over hurdles.
