Luck Of The Legion won last year’s inaugural running though is 17lb higher this time having won again subsequently. But ANYWAYYOULOOKATIT returns to hurdling only 3lb higher than when landing a 3m chase at Uttoxeter and Jonjo O’Neill’s charge may prove worth sticking with. Timely Gift ended last year with a double in soft going and is 8lb higher on his reappearance while Quinto steps up in trip after placing a Newton Abbot. Jimmi Chew fell on his return to action and Dorado Dollar should also be sharper for a recent comeback run.
