KILCASCAN went close to following up a win at Bangor when beaten only a short-head at Worcester last time. He gets the vote given Jim Bob Jones could only manage third off today's mark at Uttoxeter last time having landed a double before that. Midnight Charmer should improve for a recent outing over these fences but both Flichity and Wheelavher are harder to fancy.
