Verdict

A competitive field goes to post for this beginners chase and the principals look to beThisthatandother, Zeta's River and Zoffany and the confident vote goes to Thisthatandother. The selection from the Paul Nicholls yard was much better than all these rivals over hurdles. He is sure to have been well schooled for this his chase debut and he should win this before going on to better things. Zeta's River is a point to point winner from a top yard and is worth noting in the market but he will have to be an above average recruit to beat the selection. Zoffany is also worthy of consideration he won a hurdle in good style on his debut when defeating River City but he has since disappointed, however the switch to fences may rekindle his enthusiasm. Of the remainder Venn Ottery at least has experience over fences and he could run into a place but the confident vote goes to Thisthatandother.
