RISING MARIENBARD has already won a point-to-point so this switch to chasing should benefit Lucinda Russell’s six-year-old, who was favourite when only finding one too good over hurdles here 10 days ago. Robins Legend is having his fifth start over fences but his latest second at Musselburgh was his best run so far, though he’s gone up 5lb since. Mcginty's Dream has twice finished second in small fields around here but is 6lb out of the handicap and was behind the selection here recently over timber.
