    Verdict

    Le Duc, Polar Red and Noisetine look the ones to concentrate on in this novices chase and the confident vote goes to Le Duc. The gelding from the Paul Nicholls yard would have finished a lot closer to Thgisthatandtother but for a mistake four out and if his jumping holds up he will be hard to beat. Polar Red was a good second behind Lilum De Cote last time but that form has since been let down so for that reason he is opposed.. Noisetine is also worthy of respect he was a fair second behind Madge Carroll last time but although he travelled well he found little off the bridle so the confident vote goes to Le Duc.
