        In depth

        Verdict

        Simber Hill has been in good form of late was a good second behind Maidstaone Monument last time out and again has the services of Tony McCoy and he will be hard to beat in this competitive affair. Just Maybe showed fair form over hurdles when with Robert Johnson and he will not have to improve much to take a hand on his chasing bow. Russell House also showed a modicum of ability over hurdles and may improve for the switch to fences. Red Hare is another to consider he is from a top yard and travels well in his races but finds very little off the bridle but is sure to take a hand in the finish. Helvitius has chasing experience and was a good second last time out behind Karidin and he only need to improve a little to win this. The remainder may do better in time.
