Verdict
QIANSHAN LEADER is progressing at a rate of knots and defied a 7lb rise for his earlier victory when beating Kealshore Boy at Doncaster recently. There looks more to come from Emma Lavelle's chaser and he gets the vote to land his hat-trick. Norman The Great has been placed on both his starts over fences and today's faster ground could bring further improvement, while Quipe Me Posted produced a decent effort when runner-up at Market Rasen last time and he could figure. Lord Singer is better than his latest run suggests and makes most appeal of the remainder.
