Verdict

Jack Fuller has been shaping well this season, and should gain due reward here over Terek and L'Orphelin. Jack Fuller has been a regular sight at Folkestone, placed on each of his last three starts over fences, and his best effort was reserved for last time at the Kent track, thanks to the fitting of a first-time visor. The faster going will suit him and Peter Hedger's charge should go close. Terek has got topweight but does have the assistance of Richard Johnson, but a bigger threat may be L'Orphelin, if he can get his jumping together. The small field should help and he is the other danger to the selection Jack Fuller who has the best form overall.
