In depth

Verdict

Scotsbrook Cloud has won five times over hurdles but his jumping of the larger obstacles leaves something to be desired and he'll need to brush up his technique if he's to make his mark in chases. Non Dom is an interesting runner as he's better than he's shown over hurdles this season and Hughie Morrison's stable has been in good form on the Flat. But the one to beat must be FLAMING GORGE, who made a bold bid to give weight to subsequent Cheltenham winner Hunt Ball at Wincanton in February and faces nothing of his calibre here.
