In depth
Verdict
Lie Forrit had Trustan Times behind when a close-up third over the brush hurdles at Haydock last time. He's gone up 5lb for that effort but is an honest sort who should be in the firing-line again. Pineau De Re has a chance on his best form while Alpha Victor will strip fitter for his run at Kelso but Neptune Equester has been looking one-paced in claimers, though is 6lb lower than his last winning mark. KAKI DE LA PREE lacks the experience of most of these but his form in novice company stands up to close scrutiny and the handicapper has given a great chance of adding to his Chepstow victory here. Howizee looks the pick of the remainder.
