EBORARRY is given the vote to win this where the dangers could turn out to be Morenito, Junctiontwentyfour while Description is one at bigger prices that should not be discounted. Eborarry, sixth at Carlisle last time over two miles will undoubtedly be suited by the step back up in trip here and remains well handicapped on his winning form over hurdles. Morenito made a winning chasing debut at Plumpton last time and off a 7lb higher mark and given his unexposed profile, it is not inconceivable that he could still be well handicapped. Junctiontwentyfour is not the most consistent but made a pleasing seasonal debut last time. He received a soft lead there and will not be provided with such a soft touch on the pace here. Description was just beginning to come to the end of his tether when tipping up last time out. He is a point-to-point winner but strangely stamina does not seem to be his forte. Innominate put in a good effort to finish second at Carlisle last time on only his second attempt at chasing. The ground today will be quicker which will not favour him as much. Eborarry is a hopeful selection to win this handicap chase.
