A wide open handicap chase here and many can be given chances on their best form but the principals look to be Red Society, Master Papa and Even More and the tentative vote is given to Red Society, The selection is well weighted on his best hurdling form and put up a pleasing debut over fences when third behind Talbot Lad. The step up in trip looks sure to suit and with ground conditions ideal he will be hard to beat. Master Papa rates the main danger on his latest third behind Were In Touch but he just gave the impression he was high enough in the weights for what he actually archive and for that reason he is opposed. Even More is another that could go well as he won well last time when beating Henrietta but he has a penalty for that win and the form has since been let down so he looks opposable on that basis. Carryonharry is taking a big drop in class and he would be a danger to all if on a going day despite his big weight. Of the remainder Tell Tale is in the form of his life and is another with place claims but he to is rising in the weights and he can not getting any better at the age of 13 and for the winner we return to Red Society.
