With It's Music having been withdrawn at the start on Monday having bled from the nose, Martin Pipe's gelding is probably best watched today and a chance is taken with See You Around, who is preferred to Rosetown. The last mentioned ran with credit on his reappearance at Huntingdon and should strip fitter for the outing so Tom George's gelding is one for the shortlist. Majestic Moonbeam did not show much in two starts over fences earlier in the year but it may be too soon to write off Jonjo O'Neill's runner although a bigger threat may come from Parson Ploughman. Paul Nicholls has his string in fine form at present so the son of Riverwise should not fail through lack of a recent run. The nine-year-old has been lightly campaigned and looks feasibly well treated on his debut over fences on ground that should suit. Knight Of Silver, who is well treated on hurdles form, looks the pick of the remainder but the vote goes to See You Around. The Seamus Mullins-trained gelding has had plenty of chances but is a consistent performer in this grade and will be suited by the cut in the ground. He is taken to gain an overdue first success.
