Coldstonesober won this in 2014 and was in very good form last summer so shouldn't be dismissed despite poor form at the backend of last season. El Grande has won two hunter chases on this track and has also gone well in handicaps so could be on a lenient mark. Fever Pitch hasn't won since 2014 and Indian Fairy goes best on heavy ground. DRAYCOTT PLACE (NAP) has been running in strong handicaps and not been disgraced. He'll appreciate the drop in class and should take care of the veteran Russian Regent from the same mark.
