Verdict
Let's Fly was a lot better than his rivals over hurdles and if he can reproduce that form on his first try over fences he will be hard to beat especially with the stable beginning to fire in the winners again. Elvis has experience on his side and he has been placed over fences but he fell last time out and it will be interesting to see if his confidence has been effected. Lynphord Girl looks the only other conceivable winner but her best form is on good to firm ground.
