Jamorin Dancer has had plenty of chances over hurdles and remains an exposed maiden so it would be no surprise if the seven-year-old found at least one too good on his return to timber having cut little ice over the larger obstacles of late. Jonaem will find this an inadequate test of stamina while Castle Friend does not look good enough so a tentative TEAMtalk vote goes to Kalinnjar. The lightly raced Irish raider makes his handicap bow off a modest mark, is blinkered for the first time and Richard McGrath takes over in the plate from conditional riders so a bold show can be expected.
