Verdict

Tipsy Indian appears a progressive sort over fences, getting off the mark over a shorter trip here last month. He's 8lb higher now but, in a race that isn't as competitive as the numbers suggest, will almost certainly be thereabouts again. Four of Toulouse Express' last five chase wins have come at this track, the most recent in September. He should be prominent again today while Riskier could appreciate the drop in distance having failed to get home over 3m3f when favourite here last time. SAMBELUCKY has been a shade disappointing over fences so far but he's still learning his trade and won back over hurdles off this mark at Catterick nine days ago. His stable is in good form and he deserves another chance over the larger obstacles.
