JAGWAR won what is traditionally a very strong C&D novice handicap in January and a 7 lb rise doesn't look enough to stop him up against largely older and more exposed opposition. Thecompanysergeant started out for Gavin Cromwell with a good third over hurdles and could have more to offer for his good new stable so he's second choice. Masaccio ran well for third behind the selection here last time and also makes the shortlist along with Path D'Oroux and last year's winner Shakem Up'arry.
