Verdict
Zubayr was a pound higher when second in this grade at Kempton in March but hasn’t won over hurdles in more than two years. WHATZDJAZZ (NAP) was only third behind Cool Sky at Aintree last month but is 5lb better off and two from two around here – his turn may have come around again. Rossetti showed a glimmer of his old form last time at Stratford when finishing ahead of Get Home Now and High Secret but is getting a bit long in the tooth. Litterale Ci is in good form but shooting up the weights and Voodoo Doll has gone up 7lb for winning a much less competitive race at Bangor. Psychedelic Rock returns from a short break.
