Verdict

Notwhatiam has winning form on the track and experience over fences so is unlikely to go down without a fight but FIDUX was probably a better hurdler and receives 6lb. Alan King’s six-year-old is making his debut over the larger obstacles and doesn’t really have a chasing pedigree but should come out best if he puts in a clear round. Longtymegone is penalised for his lucky win in a maiden hunter chase and wouldn’t be in the same league as the market principals.
