Verdict
Sohapara, Quetal, Persona Pride and Whatamonkey look the three to concentrate on in this hunter chase and the confident vote goes to Sohapara. The selection was a good second behind Cherry Gold last time and need only reproducer that effort to score. Quetal rates the main danger on his latest third behind Lancastrian Jet but he is a far from a fluent jumper and is opposed for that reason. Persona Pride won a point in good style last time out but he has failed to deliver over regulation fences in the past. Of the remainder Whatamonkey has chances on his best form but for the winner we return to Sohapara.
