        Verdict

        Most of these appear out of sorts at the moment so we will stick with the form horse and choose Polish Cloud to beat Toulouse and Neutron. Tom George's gelding is making his chasing debut and was most impressive when returning to winning ways in a Perth handicap hurdle last month. He is a sound jumper who will have no problems with the ground and his chance is hard to get away from. Toulouse is a veteran of three chases's and has shown improvement with each outing, if he can avoid the odd mistake he will be a big danger to the selection. Neutron was rated 126 over hurdles so has to be respected on his chasing debut for top trainer Martin Pipe. Of the remainder Investor Relations should improve for a recent third at Exeter, but Polish Cloud will no doubt have been well schooled by his shrewd handler and he is a confident choice.
