Verdict

This is a bit of a shocker but top weights have won both previous renewals so maybe that's a pointer to the chances of Free World, who is eased significantly in class on his first start since March, and Kinari. The latter has shown little over fences so far but was placed twice over hurdles. Zero Visibility was third on his only previous chase start in February and Magical Man won here last December, though remains 5lb higher. CAPILLA is the default selection given he finished five lengths ahead of Magical Man over 2m here recently, despite racing freely. He should fare better today if amenable to more restraint.
