There is a strong suspicion JAGWAR (2) could be better than this mark. Absent for 275 days however it was tough not to be impressed with his course and distance success at the Festival last March and racing for Oli Greenall and Josh Guerriero can make a winning return to action. Consider. VINCENZO (7) went well on return when second behind a subsequent winner here four weeks ago. Impossible to dismiss up 1kg. The third home that day HOE JOLY SMOKE (9) might be in the mix off the same mark with Harry Skelton taking over in the saddle. Last time out Aintree winner COLONEL HARRY (3) is another to note.

Last outing finished fourth of 11 starters at this track on November 16 over 3200m, on slow going 4.5 len behind Triple Trade with 67.5kg at $5. Before that held ground to the line finished third of 9 runners at Aintree on November 8 over 3200m, 0.8 len behind Mambonumberfive carrying 71.5kg at $29. Might find this a bit too tough.
