Today's testing ground should prove no problem to JIMMY THE SAINT and he can return to winning ways. A winner over 2m at Towcester last month, he found the progressive Non Dom too good over today's trip last time but that form is still the best on offer here. Dancing Art will have come on for his recent debut at Newcastle and can figure, while better is expected from Irish raider Mia's Vic with a hurdling bow at Navan under his belt. Hawaii Klass was a well-beaten third on his latest start and more is needed here.
