      Verdict

      Parlour Game looks the one to be on here, with Jenga and Wontcostalot looking best of the others. The selection has already won two chases and a hike of 10lbs for the most recent of them will not make things easy, but she has proven that she sees this trip out well and her overall experience can be made to pay. Jenga won her first two hurdles and certainly has scope for chasing. This is her debut in that respect. Kali des Obeaux was formerly with Alan King, for whom she won three hurdles. If taking to fences - this is her debut - she looks fairly treated on the best of her hurdle form so it would be no surprise to see her go well at the first time of asking. Binny Bay won at Perth in July but races from six pounds out of the weights, while Bella Mary races from 20lbs out of the handicap. A return to the level of form that saw Wontcostalot win novice chase over course and distance in April would make her competitive but, all things considered, Parlour Game has the best credentials and gets our vote.
