Castletown went well last time out over hurdles and will have boosted his confidence in so doing but he has yet to convince he'll be as good jumping fences and is set to be short enough in the betting on that basis.
Instant Replay also went well here last time over timber and is worth a look on what will be a first start over the larger obstacles, with
Flemerina, another chase debutante, joining him in piquing interest.
Eager To Know was well backed last time at Musselburgh and hadn't been posed any serious questions when coming to grief but this could go the way of
FRANKIE BALLOU, who remains open to doing better on just his fifth chase outing. He followed home an easy winner at Catterick in a first-time hood recently and has form on soft ground, ensuring he earns the vote to go one better.
