Another open contest and not much regulation form to go on and with this in mind we will take a chance on Sea Haitch Em. The eight year old was a good second behind Fetreval at Leicester last time out and a reproduction of that effort would make him hard to beat. Fine And Dandy has been in fair form between the flags of late but his form over regulation fences leaves a lot to be desired, however he goes on any ground. Jack Of Kilcash is one of the least exposed in the field and if he takes to these bigger fences he could go well at a fair price. Of the remainder Dancing Fosenby is in form but his best efforts have come over a longer trip. Eastern Point is from a shrewd yard and is worth a cautionary look in the market.
