A fairly useful winner over hurdles, BEAU BALKO hasn't quite matched that level in 3 starts over fences so far, but he still remains capable of better as a chaser having made a bad mid-race mistake (jumped fine otherwise) at Hereford last time. He is taken to go one better, with Cedar Hill feared most with his recent run behind him. Mint Gold is also considered.
