    Verdict

    Cenotice is 2lb lower than his last winning mark but has been out of sorts this season. File Illico’s recent form is even less impressive so this looks a good opportunity for GREAT HEART’JAC to add to his victory here in December having thrown away an advantage on the run-in at Huntingdon five days ago.
