Verdict

In a race which doesn't look the strongest on paper, it seems notable that William Haggas decides to send NEW CHAPTER on the long trip up North. The stable have had just three runners at this track over the past five years, and two of those have won. This Invincible Spirit colt can improve for the step up in trip and add to that impressive record. He doesn't set an impossible standard for the others to reach, so if he were to disappoint then Let Me Be would be a likely candidate to capitalise on that after he has looked a real prospect in winning a pair of National Hunt bumpers. Also on the shortlist is Bellatrixsa who is eased in class after displaying promise on debut.
