Not shown much so far but represents top connections and no surprise to see him shine switched to handicaps in first-time tongue tie.

Daphne Du Clos
Nicky Henderson's mare caught the eye on her Sandown reappearance and looks the sort to take a big step forward from it. Looks ready to open her account over timber.

Aspire Tower
Made big impression when winning sole start over timber at Punchestown and can justify favouritism under Rachel Blackmore here.

Simply The Betts
Two from two over fences and looks very exciting prospect for Harry Whittington. Can take this despite shouldering top weight.

Verdana Blue
Beat Buveur D'Air in this last year and looks a big player once again with the ground drying out. Has the speed to win this again.
loading
Eaglehill
Aidan Coleman's mount wears cheekpieces for the first time and looks the sort to win races at this level. A potential improver for Olly Murphy.

Lostintranslation
Impressive winner of both starts this term including defeat of Bristol De Mai in Betfair Chase and can lower the colours of Cyrname in a cracking King George.
