Verdict
Mance Rayder won this in 2021 and Lough Salt was successful a year ago. The former is on the same mark and has Brian Hughes back in the saddle, though was beaten a long way at Catterick last month. The latter loves it here and ran well on the track last time while Elleon was narrowly beaten over the track and trip on his penultimate start and should be thereabouts again. Post Chaise looked one to follow when landing his first two starts over fences but then ran a shocker when strongly fancied at Carlisle. Get With It has looked a bit high in the weights after his Kelso victory and BIG CHANGES loves the quick ground and a 5lb rise for a convincing victory at Leicester doesn't look excessive. The remaining pair both have chances in a tight handicap.
