    Verdict

    Mr Nemo, Ray Source and Reasonable Reserve go to post for this beginners chase and all would have a chance on their best form but we will side with Mr Nemo. The 10 year old was a long way behind Brother Joe last time but this is much easier and a reproduction of his second behind Niagara would make him hard to beat. Ray Source rates the main danger but he was slightly disappointing behind Misty Future last time and he is suited by more cut in the ground. Reasonable Reserve would be hard to beat on hurdles form but he has not impressed with his fencing of late so we will side with Mr Nemo.
