Verdict

BIG JIM has the form in the book with a nine-length victory over track and trip on his racecourse debut. He may well defy a penalty in this company. Lettheriverrundry makes his debut sporting the McManus colours and is worth noting in the betting but Big Mike was a big disappointment when sent off favourite last time, though has claims on his earlier second at Catterick. It's hard to make a case for the remainder.
