Presenting Streak won over a shorter trip here 11 days ago on only his second start over fences but has a penalty to carry. GENTLEMAN MOORE was given plenty of rope at Uttoxeter and took full advantage. Though upped 10lb, he could take some catching again on this sharper track. Set In My Ways didn't manage a win over hurdles but may do better over fences, though he wasn't as good as Taigan over timber. Super Scorpion is improving over the larger obstacles and looks the pick of the remainder.
