Verdict

FAUSTUS has been expensive to follow since runner-up over C&D in June but he's worth another chance back at this venue with headgear left off this time. Dragon God arrives in good form and is re-united with Tom Marquand, while C&D winner Just Jump is quirky but capable.

8	Finally got off the mark when narrow winner at Yarmouth under this rider earlier this month and backed that up with a decent third under a penalty at Brighton 5 days later.
