All For Cash went close over timber last month and makes his chasing debut. Avenging Ace is rated higher over hurdles than the former but cut little ice on his first start over the larger obstacles at Bangor. Global Warming fared better on his chasing bow but that was back in 2010 and LOUGH COI is preferred. The latter finished a well beaten third in a handicap chase at Sandown last week but had done much better in similar company to this at Fontwell before that and gets the vote. Master Neo will have come on for his recent fourth at Worcester and is another to consider.
