STAND UP AND FIGHT's beating of Billaway at this course earlier in the campaign sticks in the mind and he was unfortunate not to get the better of Jury Duty on his penultimate outing, so he boasts excellent claims with his latest outing at Cheltenham easily excused. Solomn Grundy was impressive at Gowran last time, so he's a serious threat.
