        Verdict

        Jonjo O’Neill bids to win this for the third time in succession but Allelu Alleluia has something to prove in this grade. A Grade 2 novice chase winner, Rocky's Treasure has disappointed in a couple of subsequent starts including when favourite at Doncaster last time behind runner-up DINGO DOLLAR. The latter was no match for Childswell on that occasion but Alan King’s charge should make another bold bid racing off a similar mark today. Both Dawson City and Cobra De Mai failed to cope with a rise in the weights last time having won their penultimate outings while Somewhere To Be was clear on the lead when falling at the last at Leicester but is upped in class for this.
