Smart hurdler is yet to fully improve upon that form over fences, having wind op before failing to justify support on return when seventh of 12 in handicap chase at Cheltenham (20.6f, good to soft) 49 days ago. Remains well treated on best form.

7/1
Developed into a useful hurdler last season and stepped up again when making a successful chase debut in an Ayr novice handicap in November. Jumped and hung badly left when pulled up at Kempton last time though so has something to prove.

9/2
Lightly-raced Flat/hurdles winner who also went in at the first time of asking over fences in 6-runner handicap over C&D (soft) 29 days ago, travelling strongly long way. Has more to offer. Big shout.

In excellent form his current yard and resumed winning ways in 9-runner handicap chase at Doncaster (19.1f, good to soft) 49 days ago, always holding on. That form has been franked so he can go well again despite taking a 6 lb rise.

Forecasts

Monmiral (15/8), General Officer (10/3), Jackpot De Choisel (9/2), Holmes St Georges (13/2), Marble Sands (7/1), Glory And Honour (12/1)

13:40 Musselburgh - 3 February 2024 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

None of these can be ruled out but JACKPOT DE CHOISEL looked ahead of his mark when a smooth-travelling scorer over C&D last time and can make light of a 5 lb rise. General Officer arrives at the top of his game and can chase home John McConnell's Irish raider ahead of the reliable Glory And Honour and handily-weighted Monmiral.
