Verdict

Fill The Power should make his mark over fences but this trip could be on the sharp side for Sue Smith's stayer. Jukebox Melody is another to note for future reference but French Seventyfive rather lost his way over hurdles and Micky Hammond's mare High Ransom isn't very big. KEALIGOLANE looks the type to benefit for a switch to the larger obstacles as he's been in the handicapper's grip since making all and winning easily in a decent contest over timber here last month. From the same family as Irish chaser Cadou Royal, the grey gets the nod.
