    Verdict

    JUNGLE JACK completed a hat-trick in minor company a year ago and scored at this grade at Haydock in November. He couldn't handle a 9lb rise back there next time but can return to winning ways. Stainsby Girl, a dual winner early last year at Kelso, completed a hat-trick after a break when landing a Class 2 handicap at Haydock but has struggled in two subsequent starts. Voix Du Reve won a handicap here last March and is 5lb lower so shouldn't be dismissed with Cork winner Lihyan looking best of the remainder.
