Impek, talented but enigmatic over hurdles, makes his chasing debut here and looks the one to beat. Moon Glow has chasing experience and his second to Golden Alpha at Warwick last time reads well. Romero and My Galliano, also making their chase debuts, will also have their supporters but their hurdles form was way behind that of Impek's. La Landiere became difficult to place over hurdles and it will be interesting to see how she fares over the larger obstacles.
