Lough Rynn, Jesnic,Waynesworld and Gin 'n' Fonic look the three to concentrate in this maiden chase and the narrow vote is given to Lough Rynn. The selection had every chance until falling behind Lonesome Man last time out. However this looks easier and if he puts in a clear round he will be hard to beat under conditions that suit. Jesnic rates the main danger on his latest third behind Calcot Flyer but all his best form is over a slightly longer trip and for that reason he is opposed. Waynesworld is another worthy of respect as he was a fair performer over hurdles but he was disappointing last time. However this represents a drop in class, he is sure to have been well schooled for this his chasing debut and he should be noted in the market. Gin 'N' Fonic is another with place claims on his latest third behind Honan but he is far from consistent and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Thyne Spirit is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but his over all form leaves him with a little to find and for the winner we return to Lough Rynn.
