Verdict

This looks a decent opportunity for POWEROFJET to follow up November's Newcastle success. Ballyfort is prone to the odd mistake but might still be the one for the forecast spot.

4	Hurdles winner last spring who had clearly learnt from his chase debut experience when off the mark in 6-runner handicap at Newcastle (2m) in November. Impressed with how he went through the race then and a 7 lb rise doesn't look enough to stop him. 1st Pick 4 Powerofjet (Ire) Jockey: Callum Bewley Trainer: Martin Todhunter J: Callum Bewley T: Martin Todhunter	100	-	-	-	56%	Scratched

2	Posted best effort in this sphere when winning 7-runner handicap Kelso (good to soft) in October. Creditable third back there since despite a bad mistake 3 out. His tendency to hit the one is a concern but he might still provide the main threat to Powerofjet. 2nd Pick 2 Ballyfort (Ire) Jockey: Bruce Lynn Trainer: N. W. Alexander J: Bruce Lynn T: N. W.

1	Found some improvement fitted with hood when making all in 2m course handicap hurdle last January. Promising third in a C&D chase the following month and shaped a bit better than being pulled up suggests on last month's C&D reappearance after wind surgery. Entitled to strip fitter. 3rd Pick 1 Rock On Jet (Ire) Jockey: Jonathon Bewley Trainer: George Bewley J: Jonathon Bewley T: George Bewley	97	-	-	-	15%	6/1
