1/1
Very smart chaser. 1 win from 3 runs this season. 14/1, 17½ lengths third of 4 to Galopin Des Champs in Irish Gold Cup at Leopardstown (24.3f, soft) 21 days ago. Solid claims dropping back in grade.

20/1
Tenth of 13 in handicap chase at Cheltenham (29.2f, good to soft, 18/1) 71 days ago. Not the force of old and hard to make a case for.

9/4
Useful chaser. Course winner. 1 win from 3 runs this season. Good 1½ lengths third of 6 to Jungle Boogie in New Year's Day Chase (14/1) at Tramore (22.8f, heavy) 54 days ago. Not discounted for all that he has a bit to find.

7/2
Very smart chaser. Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 50/1, below form fifteenth of 25 in handicap chase at Leopardstown (21.5f, soft) 20 days ago. Returns to a more suitable trip and looks a big player.

Forecasts

I Am Maximus (1/1), Minella Crooner (9/4), Vanillier (7/2), Fury Road (20/1)

Verdict

VANILLIER has the best form and returns to a suitable distance now, so he takes marginal preference over I AM MAXIMUS, who drops back into calmer waters. Minella Crooner is another definite player.
