Sonevafushi has already made a tremendous impact at the chasing game and is a confident choice to go in again, River Marshal and Fantastic Champion should fill the places. The selection, a top class hurdler, has put in two very impressive performances over the larger obstacles. He first chased home the well regarded Ollie Magem her at Fakenham, before destroying a small but select field at Haydock. Today's opposition are a lot weaker and this race looks at his mercy. If the favourite has an off day, River Marshall could be the one to take advantage as he finished an excellent third behind Light Des Moulottes last time. Fantastic Champion looks best of the remainder having been a decent enough hurdler, However his jumping does need to show marked improvement. So not the hardest of tasks for Sonevafushi who is fully expected to land the spoils.
