Verdict

Lord Killeshanra has proved very frustrating this season but is given one more chance and is chosen to beat Charlton Kings and Manx Royal. Colin Tizzard's gelding has finished runner up on his last three outing's, but has come up against some decent types including Senor Sedona and Laska De Thaix . He can make the most of the weight he receives from his principal rivals today and is taken to oblige. Manx Royal is giving the selection a stone and although he landed two small races earlier in the season he hasn't progressed as expected. Meanwhile Charlton Kings landed what looked a modest race at Towcester last time, however the third has since skated in so it may be better than first thought and he could be the main threat to Lord Killeshanra. Pirate Flagship and Men Of Destiny are from top yards and they should be monitored in the betting for their first outings over obstacles, however Lord Killeshanra's form should be strong enough to land this event. .
