Verdict

Last year's winner RASH MOVE is taken to concede weight all round and complete the double. He is by far the best of these over regulation fences as his last three runs demonstrate. A third in the Aintree Foxhunters was followed by a similar effort at the big Cheltenham hunter chase evening before he was caught in the last stride by a rejuvenated Moon Over Miami on his latest outing at Southwell. That constitutes a tough standard for his rivals to match and he should gain a second victory in this contest if recovered from those exertions. Killary Bay was beaten over 30l here last year by the selection and there's no reason why he should turn the form round. He did score at Catterick in March though and is an each-way possibility. Discussion Forum and the ex- Alan King inmate Habbie Simpson are other place options.
