chased leading pair, soon ridden along, blundered 6th and fell 10th
made all, steadily drew clear from 4 out, very easy
pressed winner 7th, ridden next, gradually weakened from 4 out
Alldunnandusted ran well when runner-up over the C&D in March from a 5lb higher mark and looks the better of the Seamus Mullins' pair. He jumped very poorly at Fontwell earlier this month but Andrew Thornton should be able to get the best out of him and he can do better. FONGOLI finished a long way ahead of him at Fontwell and though he's not one to risk the mortgage on he's probably capable of taking this from a lowly mark with his rider's claim a help. Jacko's Boy has never looked the easiest of rides and his young jockey may have his hands full though he's gone very close to winning on several occasions and won't get many better chances.
