Tom Barton brings the best point-to-point form into this but on paper he faces a stiff task against PORT MELON who was a useful chaser at his best. Paul Nicholls has a good record in these races and his chaser may do better following a break and a return to less competitive company. Such A Legend was a Chepstow winner over this trip a year ago off a mark of 123 and conditions are set for him to produce his best run since.
