Verdict

JONNIESOFA has already had success over fences and he can add to his tally here on his chase handicap debut where he his returning to action following a lengthy break. Boagrius scored twice over fences last season and he looks like he will appreciate this step up in distance now so expect a big run from him, while Blakerigg has produced some good form at this track and is likely to be in contention following his wind surgery.
  1. Jonniesofa

  3. Blakerigg
