JOLTING N JIVING (3.20 Carlisle, nap)
He looked a surefire future winner when running an excellent second on debut at Bangor last time. There was a good gap to the third and the winner wasn’t disgraced in Listed company latest. Trainer Donald McCain has a fine record in this race with three wins in the past four runnings. He can act to that tally with Brian Hughes on board.

He comes here in fine form having won both his starts since switching to fences. He saw out this trip with plenty left in the tank at Donny latest and there’s plenty more to come.

Clocked a big personal best when scooting in by 11 lengths at Catterick seven days ago. That was over fences but she has decent hurdles form on her CV too. Trainer Philip Kirby is in excellent form and rider Joe Williamson takes off 3lb.

Is consistent and went down by less than a length at Southwell on Friday in a similar race to this. He likes it here too and is best over this trip.
