Verdict
After winning his two previous starts, the handicapper appeared to have caught up with Ajzal judged on his latest third at Uttoxeter. The Quantum Kid recorded his only win over timber at this track and he's worth noting on his chase debut, but the vote goes last year's winner MISAMON. He's been threatening a return to winning ways of late and this looks slightly easier than his recent tasks. Streedagh Lady went close in a hunter chase last time and Mirage Prince arrives on the back of a couple of point-to-point wins.
