King Revo looked in need of the run behind Team Tassel at Cheltenham's Open meeting last time and should come on for the run but faces no easy task giving weight away to Lord Beauty, who gets the vote ahead of Turn Of Phrase. The selection was useful on the flat in France and having shown promise over hurdles last term wasted no time in getting off the mark this season, making a winning reappearance in a maiden hurdle at Fontwell earlier this month. Noel Chance's gelding is open to further improvement and is taken to make a winning start to his handicap career off what looks a fair mark. Keith Reveley saddles three runners with jockey booking suggesting that Hidden Bounty is preferred to October Mist and Il Cavaliere. A bigger threat may come from recent Fontwell winner Cool Roxy, who has been raised 7lbs for that success. John Quinn's Archie Babe has a nice racing weight and is another to consider along with bottom weight Turn Of Phrase, who has shown a consistent level of form in all three starts this season. Lord Beauty looks an improved performer this term though and is taken to follow up his recent success.
