Castlebrook, a winning point-to-pointer, had some smart form in bumpers and over hurdles last season and, with trip and ground likely to suit, can go well. Invincible Cave has also won between the flags and, though slightly disappointing in two starts over timber, he'll be much better suited by stepping up to this trip. Eurobot went for £105,000 after landing a point at Andoversford by 20 lengths, though he didn't have much to beat, while Getaday takes a big step up in trip after a close fourth over 2m1f at Clonmel. CLINTON HILL is a full-brother to a winning point-to-pointer so the fact he could win a bumper was a bonus. He'll do better when sent over fences but this should prove within his capabilities.
