        Verdict

        RED JADE has struggled on the Flat this year but had some decent form over timber last winter and AP McCoy is back on board for the first time since the gelding won a maiden hurdle at Southwell in November last year. He may well be good enough here with Trendelenburg struggling to make any sort of impact lately and C&D winner Courting Whitney finishing tailed off at Stratford earlier this month. Red Riverman won at Market Rasen in June but has hardly raised a gallop in subsequent starts here and at Perth and looks one to be wary of. The others have a lot to find at the weights.
