Verdict

Trust Fund is nominated ahead of Joseph Beuys and Briar's Mist in this handicap chase. The selection was a little disappointing last time but that was in a better race than this and he is prone to throwing in the odd bad run. He will see out every yard of this trip and with ground conditions to suit he gets the vote. Joseph Beuys won well last time at Folkestone when beating Cool Song but his best form is on quicker ground that today's, so for that reason we will oppose. Briar's Mist was impressive when beating High Cotton at Newcastle last time but he didn't beat much that day and he has more on his plate in this company. Blunham Hill has the form to win this but he is better over a shorter trip and for the winner we will return to Trust Fund.
