In depth
Verdict
LOW SUN, who won the Cesarewitch back in 2018, was making his chasing debut when a very good third in a similar race over the track and trip last month, should improve enough to get off the mark over fences. Not Available has had very little experience and having won a maiden hurdler here in April has been an odds-on beaten favourite in two runs over fences. He finished behind Fred The Foot when they occupied the places at Clonmel and there should be little between them again. Spades Are Trumps has had nine starts over fences and been placed once but has mainly operated at a higher level.
