COBBS CORNER gets the nod to build on his C&D chase debut fourth earlier in the month and add to last season's Fakenham handicap hurdle success. Recent Doncaster winner Loudspeaker rates an obvious danger, while King Otis has won over hurdles since joining James Owen and is also respected on his first chase start for the trainer.
