GET ME OUT OF HERE is on a roll and he can win again at the main expense of Harouet and Spirit River. Jonjo O'Neill's 5-year-old has won each of his three starts to date and he comfortably justified favouritism when he beat Walamo at Ffos Las earlier in the month. He has more on his plate today but he remains unexposed and it could pay to stick with him. Harouet also scored at Ffos Las recently over the chase fences, but he was returning from a lengthy break that day so the bounce factor could be a worry today. Spirit River hails from a yard in top form and this French recruit is certainly worth a market check on his British debut. Nicky Henderson also sends Radium to post and he has a very similar profile so the market may provide the clues in relation to which of the pair is fancied. Lepido wasn't beaten far behind Stratford Stroller at Lingfield last time out and if he can build on that then he could also get competitive. The market may well provide a few clues here but we will side with Get Me Out Of Here as the pick.
