Verdict

This looks a cracking novice handicap. DIOMEDE DES MOTTES shaped well on his chase debut/reappearance and gets the nod to build on that, but there are a host of possible dangers, headed by Colin Tizzard's Ofalltheginjoints, whose pointing background suggests he should take to fences. Ocean Cove and Jammy George are also much respected.
