Full Of Joy won over course and distance in September but has let supporters down twice since. Winds Of Waves was second on his chasing debut, ahead of Tullyraine, and will almost certainly improve, though is 5lb higher here. Ifyousayso won first-time out last term but DEISE DYNAMO may be the one to beat as he just failed to catch King Of The Wolds at Sedgefield and looks likely to be suited by the step up in distance. He appears to have the beating of Herdsman but Black Is Beautiful could be a threat if taking to fences and fully wound-up.
