Verdict

My Murphy is as good a starting point as any, last year's winner will likely mount another bold effort despite being up 9lb in what should be a fiercely competitive heat. JETSTREAM JACK'S trainer landed yet another valuable pot at Leopardstown on Sunday and on his first foray into handicap company here he has an excellent man on his back to enhance what look fair claims on the formbook. Stablemate Roi Des Francs has a big enough ask here on his handicap chase debut but could still have a say while his Tramore conqueror Champagne West is full of class and possesses rock solid claims for a yard going well. Pleasant Company is respected for his leading connections but has been tasked with a fair burden on his reappearance while Prince Of Scars is another handicap chase debutant worth of maximum respect in a typically deep field. 1. Jetstream Jack 2. Champagne West 3. Prince Of Scars
