    In depth

    Verdict

    Paul Nicholls won this last year but his Mr Mix was better over shorter and on softer going over hurdles so is taken on with KELVINGROVE. Jonjo O’Neill’s chasing newcomer is a proven stayer over timber and won at Haydock last month after several decent runs. Honourable Henry and Touch Screen will be out of their depth if the market leaders take to fences.
