Verdict
Chasing debutant Mac Tottie has won four of eights starts over hurdles though none of those wins came in a handicap. The Welsh Paddies is another chasing for the first time having landed a double over timber earlier this year though is 10lb higher than when last winning. Nesterenko went close on his first start over fences though failed to build on that last time but a chance is taken HEYDOUR can go one better having just missed out at Huntingdon on his first outing over the larger obstacles. Head To The Stars ended last year in poor form and Marble Moon is struggling at present.
