Fox Le Bel is first reserve here but was heavily supported on his comeback at Tipperary only to unseat his rider four out. WEIHNACHTS is another of J P McManus' runners and he's been threatening to win for a while. He is one of the few here with a bit of scope and gets the nod as Getaday, another lightly-raced type, makes his handicap debut over fences under a big weight. Hoke Colburn, twice a winner in the UK, is consistent enough at this level and his rider's claim is a plus while Rolling Revenge gained a surprise victory here last month and a bad mistake put paid to his chances at Punchestown.
