Verdict

Indy Five crashed out too early to ascertain much over C&D last month, but he was an impressive scorer at Taunton chase bow and isn't to be written off for the trainer that won this contest a year ago. Duke Des Champs offered plenty to work on when second here in December on his return from a long layoff and must command respect on that showing now upped in distance. Markov is unbeaten over fences and should put up a bold show for in-form Ben Pauling despite a 12lb hike, while Reigning Supreme and Ibis Du Rheu represent top yards and have potential to have their say. LOVELY JOB progressed nicely last season over fences and ended with a nice success at Taunton, raised 5lb, he could be open to doing better again off a short break and should go well in the very competitive field.
  1. Lovely Job
  2. Markov
  3. Duke Des Champs
