SCINTILLANTE (5) did well to clock-in third two back in a hurdle (3200m) at Worcester. Improved to salute in a hurdle (3200m) at Worcester 13 days ago, arriving 2.5 lengths ahead of his rivals. Sure to prove hard to beat. RUSSIAN VIRTUE (1) missed the frame two back on the flat over 1700m then again missed out in a flat race over 2000m at Redcar last time, 4 lengths adrift of the winner. Must be a chance back to the jumps. REEL ROSIE (2) is looking to improve on a last-start tenth on the flat over 2460m at Chester on May 9. Will be hard to beat. CAWTHORNE CRACKER (8) has been mixing his form this preparation over the jumps. In the placings when resuming in a steeplechase (3280m) at Sedgefield then finished 47 lengths from the winner last time in fifth in a steeplechase (3400m) at Stratford-On-Avon. Will be tough to beat.
