Akula has proved a revelation of late and will have his supporters as he bids to complete a hat-trick but his victories came in selling company and he has to be considered vulnerable to an improver, with
CHAMPION CHASE fitting the bill. Kim Bailey's charge showed clear signs of improvement in testing conditions at Lingfield last time and looks to be well-treated for his handicap bow. The same could also apply to
Lickpenny Larry if the introduction of a tingue-strap has the desired effect whilst
Cafe Au Lait is better than he showed under an amateur pilot at Catterick last time and is also respected.
