Captain Chaos coped with the step up in trip in a Listed race at Warwick last month and should be winning soon. But MISSED APPROACH (NAP), who holds an entry in the 4m National Hunt Chase next month, looked a stayer to follow when making most at Lingfield last time and will be hard to peg back if allowed to dominate again. Calett Mad has only been beaten once so far over fences but steps out of handicap company for the first time. Catterick winner Delusionofgrandeur has to give 4lb to useful rivals and was well behind The Dutchman on worse terms at Kelso in December while Baywing may require more experience.
