BURST YA BUBBLE took advantage of Daniel Sansom's claim for a victory over the track and trip last month and can do so again though this looks a bit tougher. Lovato, a winner on the Flat in Germany, hasn't quite got to grips with jumping and has been a short-priced beaten favourite in both starts but Rasasee overcame mistakes to score at Market Rasen and a better round of jumping will see him in the frame. Whoshotwho scrambled home in a Southwell bumper but his pedigree is all about jumping so he's one to note.
