There is not much between these on hurdle ratings but PAYNGO was giving a 114-rated chaser a run for his money before tipping up at the final fence last time and, if none the worse for that, looks to have a bit in hand of her rivals. Thisonesforollie will improve for her chase debut and first run in months, whilst Pat's Pearl likes it here and should go well on her first run over fences. Le Braye and Top Of The Charts represent a top yard but may just find the weight concession to the mares beyond them. Pegase Amour is an enigma given his point-to-form exceeds his rules exploits. This is easier than his last task and he has each-way prospects.
