This looks to be another opportunity for Tom George and Jason Maguire to team up with a winner in Search And Destroy who should be capable of defying topweight at the expense of Sam Adamson and Tiger Typhoon. Search And Destroy was a dual winner on the Flat and has performed well over timber, especially when the ground is in his favour. He sauntered home under fast conditions at Newcastle the time before last on his chase debut and was not disgraced in better company on his latest engagement. Sam Adamson gets lumps of weight from the selection but did not have much to beat on his chase debut here six days ago. Also, that was over a longer trip and he will find this tougher. Tiger Typhoon was pulled up behind Azertyuiop here on his fencing introduction and has not really progressed since. He will find his level one day but it is hard to get enthusiastic about his claims here.
