Verdict

Rydalis probably wasn't winning out of turn at Leicester last time but has another 6lb to carry here. FRONTIER SPIRIT has had his problems this season but finally completed a race when a distant second to Poole Master on heavy ground at Ffos Las. That should have given him a bit of confidence and Nigel Twiston-Davies' charge can go one better upped in trip here as Lively Baron invariably flatters to deceive, though is now 7lb lower than his last winning mark. Like the selection, Streams Of Whiskey has jumping issues but Chapolimoss should strip fitter for a close third over track and trip in January.
