Zuba has been very disappointing since winning a Plumpton maiden last year and was well beaten at Fontwell on Friday. In contrast, Poker Master has been in brilliant form lately but a further 5lb rise will test his progress. Bay Of Intrigue has only found one too good at Lingfield and Sedgefield this year and wind surgery could have transformed Brilliant Present but Flat winner JUSTIFIED is very interesting tackling quicker going for the first time over hurdles having been dropped 3lb since his third at Fakenham.
