Verdict

The returning Le Breuil has a chance on last season’s best placed efforts while Salty Boy finished third in the Eider Chase at Newcastle back in February and has a recent run under his belt. Gleno should be sharper today and the going suits but GAME LINE is also versatile as regards the ground and makes most appeal. Progressive over fences early in the year, he won the Norfolk National over 3m5f at Fakenham in May and has placed off today’s higher mark subsequently. Almazhar Garde has a good strike rate over fences and will be winning again soon while dual novice chase winner Premier D'troice looks best of the remainder.
