In depth

Verdict

A cracking chase in prospect, with several of the runners in good form. Top weight Hescondido has yet to convince over this trip, while stablemate Trouble Ahead, is back down to a mark he has won off. A Piece Of Cake, has been given a break since disappointing at Newbury, and is unexposed over this trip. He could be a danger to all. After a confidence booster over hurdles last time, Paperising comes into this a fresh horse. He has been dropped a couple of pounds by the Handicapper and looks sure to run a big race, while the consistent Ryalux has yet to win over this trip. A chance is taken with the blinkered Zafarabad, who is still relatively unexposed over this trip.
