She'sasupermack and Sirobbie both came up short bidding for a hat-trick last time and are upped in grade for this. Jacks Last Hope would have a chance on his best form but Rolling Maul seems out of sorts at present. For Good Measure was back on-song at Huntingdon last month after a spell chasing but may be too close in the weights to THEATREBAR. Dan Skelton’s 11-year-old has placed twice here and won over this trip at Worcester at the start of the month under a hands and heels ride.
