Verdict

Mark Loughnane has been firing-in the winners at this venue recently and STARFIGHTER drops back down in class having scored over track and trip last month. Hooves Like Jagger was narrowly beaten over a longer trip at Chelmsford last time while Scarborough Castle has a shout back over today’s distance. Order Of St John has won over hurdles since finishing runner-up here in October and is preferred to Hashtagmetoo.
