In depth

Verdict

Bob Ar Aghaidh, Jiver and Charango Star are three against the field in a tough race to call for punters and the vote is given to Jiver. The selection was a good second off this mark behind Iceberge last time out. That form has since been franked and off the same mark here he looks the value bet in an open affair. Bob Ar Aghaidh rate the main danger on his latest second behind On The Outside but he was let down by his jumping when full pressure was applied last time and he looks vulnerable off this mark and he looks opposable on that basis. Charango Star is another that could go well on his best form but he ran as if the handicapper had caught up with him when fifth behind Tommy Carson last time out and for that reason he is passed over on this occasion. Of the remainder The Sister and Follow The Flow are game and consistent ands are sure to run there races but they are more exposed than most and there best efforts of late have come with more cut in the ground and for the winner we return to Jiver who is continuing to go in the right direction.
