In depth
Verdict
Oasis Prince, four-times a winner on the Flat, hasn't shown much over hurdles so far and makes his handicap debut. MISSTREE SONG, twice runner-up in three starts over timber, would probably have won at Newton Abbot in September but for a last-flight fall and with conditions in her favour can gain her first success under Rules. The four-year-old Fraterculus had been threatening to win a race before stepping up to 2m3f at Donncaster and running poorly. Back over this trip he can get into contention but Chess Player was well beaten at Taunton after a couple of runs in jumper's bumpers.
