A wide open contest this and Paul Nicholls has three genuine contenders. It may pay to chance CYRNAME who is better over this sort of trip than the 2m4f he has tackled the last twice and he should strip fitter for his recent return so can land this valuable contest. Top-weight Ozzie The Oscar is the most feared rival, Philip Hobbs' charge is yet to finish out of the frame over fences and can continue the run here. Stablemate of the selection Modus is another likely to be popular having won first time out at Cheltenham.
