Verdict

Tribal Dispute,Wet Lips and Moscow Dancer look the three to concentrate on in this novices chase and the confident vote is given to Tribal Dispute. The selection won well last timeout when beating Encore Cadouald and although he has a penalty for that win he won with plenty in hand and under his optimum conditions here he is taken to win again. Wet Lips rates the main danger on his best hurdling form and he is sure to have been well schooled for this his chasing debut. However he may just come on for the experience and for that reason he is opposed. Moscow Dancer is anther with a chance on his best hurdles form but that has come over a shorter trip and this hard pull may not last home. Of the remainder Daguyda, has shown glimmers of ability in the past and may improve for this better ground. His yard are in form and he should be noted in the market but for the winner we return to Tribal Dispute who won so well last time out.
