Verdict

REGAL RENAISSANCE has impressed since joining Jack Jones and can defy the handicapper again. Gwash came off worse in a battle with Alex Bleue over C&D 12 days ago but rail movements meant that race was run over nearly a furlong further than the advertised distance and Fergal O'Brien's charge can turn the tables this afternoon and give the selection most to do.

2	Completed a small-field hat-trick (first leg for Henry Daly) when seeing off 2 rivals at Market Rasen (21f, good) 17 days ago. Thriving for Jack Jones and only 2 lb higher as she goes in search of the 4-timer.

7	Placed in a handicap hurdle here last month and repeated the feat when ¾-length second to reopposing Axel Bleue second over C&D 3 weeks ago, just denied by a stronger stayer having travelled well. That was only his second start over fences so he may do better again. Considered. 2nd Pick 7 Gwash (Ire) Jockey: Tom Broughton Trainer: Fergal O'brien J: Tom Broughton T: Fergal O'brien	98	-	-	-	17%

8	Point/dual bumper winner who came good at the third time of asking over fences when wearing down the reopposing Gwash towards the finish over C&D 3 weeks ago. Suited by rail movements adding nearly a furlong to that race and no certainty to confirm the placings. 3rd Pick 8 Axel Bleue Jockey: James Bowen Trainer: Mickey Bowen J: James Bowen T: Mickey Bowen	98	-	-	-	34%
