This won't take much winning and Flat winner Captain George has a decent chance of a first victory over hurdles, despite top weight, though will probably struggle to reverse recent Worcester form with ST ANDREWS (NAP). Ian Williams' charge was a close third that day, despite being hampered in the closing stages, having won earlier on the all-weather at Kempton. Beaumont's Party won at Fakenham in June but has barely raised a gallop since. Sisania and Chivers may be best of the rest but that's not saying much.
