In depth
Verdict
Rye Brook, Innocent Rebel and Moonbear look the three to concentrate on in this hunte chase with the vote going to Rye Brook. The selection won well last time out when beating Traditional, this slightly shorter trip looks sure to suit and with the ground also in his favour he will be hard to beat. Innocent Rebel rates the main danger on his latest second behind Beau Supreme but he often finds less than expected off the bridle and is taken on with this in mind. Moon Bear is another last time out winner that could go well but his best form is with slightly more cut in the ground. Of the remainder Chita's Flight is improving all the time and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to Rye Brook who will be hard to beat.
