    Verdict

    Gunner Dream is impossible to fancy on public form, while Winchester's win came in a very moderate race at Catterick, so this should rest between Jungle Jinks and Denada. Clear preference goes to Jungle Jinks, whose winning run was halted last time out, but only by Keen Leader, who is clearly one of the very best novices this season. Prior to that he had been an impressive course and distance winner, seems to handle most types of ground and can resume winning ways. Denada is a winning Irish pointer who showed enough behind Stormez at Newbury last time to suggest that he can give the selection most to worry about.
