Tidal Watch has become expensive to follow and is now tried in cheekpieces while Pardon Me didn’t show much aptitude for chasing when trained by Seamus Mullins, who saddles Postman in this. Authorizo and Mawlood both make their chasing debut having won last time over the smaller obstacles while Getabuck has had wind surgery since last seen. ROSTELLO may be 0-6 over fences but he has dropped 12lb since the end of last year, despite showing some ability – he might just enjoy himself around here.
