In depth
Verdict
I HAVE DREAMED is a useful performer in this grade as he showed with a facile success at Ascot last time. He likes quick ground and should prove too good for these. Whizzar is a veteran point-to-pointer with eight victories to his credit between the flags. He's also won four hunters events though he would probably prefer some cut in the ground. Restless D'Artaix looks best of the remainder as this former French hurdles winner did it nicely at Leicester last month and he hasn't had as much experience as most of these. Master Medic was once a very useful chaser for Tim Walford and has been in fine form between the flags this winter though this is a step up.
