Varom was heavily supported when returning from a break at Warwick last month but never really looked like rewarding backers and he's obviously had his problems. Rushvale has been placed in three of his four hurdle starts and should be a factor, however, while Kap Jazz has had just the three starts over timber. Allchilledout is similarly unexposed but we'll take a chance on CRAIGANEE at likely decent odds. Chris Down's charge is a bit of an in-and-out performer but didn’t fare badly in a couple of runs in October and has dropped down the weights again.
