Philip York's Ambrosinni is bound to be popular with backers being the highest rated of the 10 runners on official BHA ratings and he has been running well in points of late so has to be hugely respected but narrow preference is for HE'S ON HIS WAY, who gets the vote ahead of Delightful Cliche. The last mentioned showed a decent level of form when last seen out under rules when a close third behind Wenger at Huntingdon and he has been running consistently well between the flags since then so has to be considered. Suzy Bull's Supa Tramp has been running better in point-to-points of late and makes more appeal than Roaringwater, who is capable but inconsistent. The vote though goes the way of David Phelan's He's On His Way, who is rated 10lbs behind Ambrosinni on official ratings but has been showing much better form in points of late and he looks worth siding with back over regulation fences having shown that improved form.
