      In depth

      Verdict

      Chantara Rose has been placed twice over fences but has failed to complete in four other starts. CHAMPAGNE GEORGE (NAP) is making his debut over the larger obstacles but does have point-to-point experience and has already won a bumper and a hurdle on this track. An opening mark of 106 looks workable and he makes more appeal than stable companion Lee Side Lady. Mason Dixon has won twice between the flags this year but has not managed a place in 13 previous tries under Rules and the others also have some improving to do.
