A very competitive affair for this type. Control Man had He's The Boss two and a half lengths behind off level weights last time out but meets that rival on three better terms here so there should not be much between them. Six is unbeaten in two bumpers and defeated King Player in good style last time out. However he is from the same yard as Control Man and jockey bookings suggest that one is more fancied. Be Fair is also one to consider he to is unbeaten but he has never run on anything softer than good ground. Patriarch Express won well at Cheltenham last time when defeating Miller's Bay. He is held in high regard and is from a predominantly flat yard. Cloudy Grey is a big imposing sort and he won well at Haydock however he is a nervy sort and he is sure to be taken on for the lead here. Of the remainder Cornish Reble is from a top yard and is worth a cautionary look in the market. Bold Bishop was fourth behind Rhinestone Cowboy last time and has since moved to the Jonjo o'Neil yard.
