All of these have something to prove after disappointing last time. Tupelo Mississippi is 0-7 over fences and hasn’t won anywhere since the end of 2020. Paddy The Horse is also still seeking a first win over the larger obstacles but Up For Parol has only run in one chase to date so has a bit of scope. Though a winner over 3m at Doncaster, a drop back in trip on this stiff course is likely to suit TWOSHOTSOFTEQUILA (NAP) who is preferred to chasing debutant Vintage Fizz.

Vintage Fizz 16-1 (11-4) Off the pace in rear, mistake 4th, never a factor, tailed off when went sharply left 2 out, pulled up before the last, at Kempton 2m 5f hcp (3) gd in Feb.
Twoshotsoftequila (IRE) 5-2fav (12-0) In rear, headway 3 out, pushed along and weakened home turn, 4th of 7, 28l behind Houston Texas (11-12) at Hexham 3m hcp (4) hvy in Mar.
Tupelo Mississippi (IRE) 4-1jfav (12-0) In touch, mridden and headway 4 out, kept on same pace, 6th of 12, 15 1/2l behind Knocknamona (10-6) at Carlisle 2m 4f hcp (4) gs in Feb.
