Verdict

THEATRE TERRITORY, a winner between the flags, has never won over regulation fences but looks in a different league to these. Placed in last year's Topham, he hasn't been in the best of form this season though he's raced at a different level to these hunters, especially as he's receiving weight. Drumlynn, a winning bumper for Nicky Henderson, scored between the flags for Luke Harvey in December and was only beaten a nose in one of these at Leicester last time but Master Sunrise, a handicap winner at Southwell last summer, was beaten a long way on his comeback at Warwick. Im All Set landed a point at Ston Easton last month before landing a maiden hunter-chase at Taunton though he hardly appears likely to concede weight to the selection.
