Verdict
Lightonthewing and TWILIGHT GLORY both have chasing experience and were winners last time. The latter only won by a head at Lingfield but gets 8lb from his likely market rival, who is penalised for his second victory over the larger obstacles at Fontwell 11 days ago. Tout Paris has placed in a point and a hurdle and, though only modest, looks the best of those tackling fences for the first time.
