Bosuns Mate Races of a mark 15lb lower than for his last Chase win at Sandown, but his most recent outings have left a little to be desired, best watched.
Igloo D'estruval (FR) Stamina is not in doubt and has conditions to suit. He should be thereabouts if his jumping holds up, one to consider.
Magic Dancer (IRE) Should have no problems with regard to the trip and going but he has been caught out for a turn of foot on a couple of occasions and may struggle in the closing stages.
Abacus (IRE) Best watched after a long lay-off.
Influence Pedler In good form at present but he is becoming hard to win with and is not one to rely on in a finish.
