Verdict

Youlbesolucky should have learnt enough from his first taste of the bigger obstacles to make his mark here at the expense of Gift Voucher, Siegfrieds Night and Electrique to name but three. Youlbesolucky has been brought along steadily, having won a bumper and a novices' hurdle in his first year of racing before having his attention switched to fences at Worcester 18 days ago. Although beaten by September Moon that day, he had the third horse 20 lengths away, and with this slight drop back in distance likely to be in his favour at this stage of his chase career, Jonjo O'Neill's charge is taken to oblige. Gift Voucher carried a big weight when beaten in handicap company at Uttoxeter, and may well fare better over today's trip, while Siegfrieds Night hails from a local stable that does well here, but needs to show more than he did when well held by Mandingo Chief at Southwell. Sue Smith is another trainer that earns plenty of respect with her runners round here, so Electrique, who is sure to have been well schooled, is worth a mention at least. Youlbesolucky did nothing wrong last time though, and should run a big race.
