Getabuck is now 0-8 over fences but has placed the last twice. Cloudy Wednesday placed over hurdles here last year and may have more to offer in chases but it is difficult to look beyond BOLSOVER BILL, despite a defeat last time at Catterick. Camulus has made the frame over hurdles and in a point and may do better now his attention is switched to the larger obstacles.
