In depth
Verdict
Ton-Chee, Lord Jay Jay and Hugs Destiny look the three to concentrate on in the beginners chase and the vote is given to Ton-Chee. The selection was disappointing last time out but prior to that he was a fair second behind Return Home, that form looks rock solid in the context of this race and he need only turn up to that mark to score. Lord Jay Jay rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind General Grey but all his best form is over a longer trip and for that reason he is opposed. Hugs Destiny was a fair third behind Lodgician last time and is another that could go well but this looks more competitive and his overall profile leaves him with a little to find. Of the remainder Amid The Chaos could improve for the fitting of first timer cheek pieces and a tongue tie but Ton-Chee sets a fair standard and he will be hard to beat.
