Spirit Of Adjisa made giant strides over hurdles in the springs, winning a Grade 1 novice event at Punchestown over this trip in May. The handicapper has rated him accordingly, however, and he hasn't been seen since finishing tailed off on the Flat in July. Palace Jester won at Ffos Las 12 days ago and looks the pick of Jonjo O'Neill's pair but Wyse Hill Teabags arguably has more scope having run Any Given Day to half-a-length on his reappearance at Haydock. Featherbed Lane did well to beat race-fit Decoy on his reappearance at Ascot and is worth another try over this trip while Cotillion is running well. But it could be worth taking a chance on REINDEER DIPPIN, who will enjoy recent rain and is back on the same mark as when second in a Listed handicap over C&D in April.
