Verdict

LOVELY JOB found Vintage Clouds too good at Ascot last month but won twice over fences during the summer and Fergal O’Briens’s charge is taken to make another bold bid in this. Joe Farrell also finished a well-beaten runner-up last time but has been dropped a further 4lb whereas Beau Du Brizais is upped in class after finishing second at Stratford. Cleni Wells has had five previous starts over fences without figuring and Captain Buck's makes his chasing debut, though should be suited on breeding.
