Verdict

Those with chasing experience don't set the bar too high so point-winner ANNIE DAY is fancied to go in at the first time of asking over fences having been brought along steadily over hurdles thus far for Christian Williams. Dexcite rates the form pick so is sure to have a say if he can back up his C&D second after a long absence, while Elixer appeals as the pick of the remainder.
