Plenty with claims in this but INDIAN STREAM is a progressive chaser in fine form having won three of her four starts over fences so far. She has a hike in the weights to contend with but won a Listed handicap at Cheltenham by eight lengths last month. Brave Spartacus took advantage of a much lower mark to win over timber last time while recent Perth winner Witness In Court and Art Of Logistics are both prone to blunders but capable on their day. The latter can reverse recent running at Newbury with Thomas Crapper while Turn Over Sivola is proving hard to win with over fences and Taunton winner My Brother Sylvest is upped in class. Johns Spirit showed signs of a revival when third at Cheltenham and could go well off his current mark.
