Verdict

Paul Nicholls sent out last year’s winner and saddles Romain De Senam, who won his first two races last season in this grade. Master Dee was last seen winning the Grade 3 Betdaq Chase at Kempton in February and finished behind BALLYBOLLEY here in September last year on more favourable terms. Play The Ace and Catamaran Du Seuil were further behind in that race and Nigel Twiston-Davies’ runner can race off the same mark today. Calipto went up 9lb for winning at Carlisle in March but is still feasibly treated on his best form and he makes more appeal than novice The Unit and Royal Village.
