Verdict

This trip takes some getting but it's not a problem for PYJAMA GAME, who has a course and distance victory to his credit. He reappeared in a hunter-chase here a month ago and wasn't beaten far so with the ground in his favour he can go in again. Strike Fast has yet to win under Rules though he's been placed on several occasions and has dropped to such a lowly mark that he should get into the frame again. Senor Alco has won six times between the flags but never under Rules and was beaten a long way over the course and distance on Thursday. Cara Court has won around here but prefers some cut in the ground.
