Verdict
PALYPSO DE CREEK is a specialist in these events and has won both starts this year including a defeat of Nowhurlin at Leicester. He will take the beating on today's terms. Nowurhlin may finish closer this time but King Fontaine was pulled-up behind the selection at Leicester and Dica is preferred having won a hunter chase at Cartmel when last seen over regulation fences. The latter finished fourth in a point-to-point a week ago and Wayupinthesky has won four times in point-to-points but fell at Limerick on his only start in a chase.
