Verdict

STEPS MATCH has shaped well having been left with plenty to do the last twice and, with Brian Hayes taking over in the saddle, he's worth chancing to gain a first success over fences. I'm Not Alone is a danger on the back of her Tipperary success just 3 days ago, while Walking The Walk is worth a mention from a handy mark.
