Verdict
Progressive over fences last year, Gone Too Far got no further than the first fence at Kempton last time when unseating. Toby Lerone has not won a chase for some time but ran well off a similar mark at Leicester last time while Alberobello was pulled-up back over fences on his latest start but remains on a decent mark. BUCK MULLIGAN found one too good at Southwell in February and was also runner-up the last time he raced over track and trip. He should make another bold bid while Generous Ransom could go well dropping down in class and back on a winning mark.
