Verdict
Fizzlestix won this comfortably last year and is only 3lb higher but ran poorly at Fontwell last time. CALIN DU BRIZAIS is on a long losing run but is generally consistent at this level and the handicapper has given him a chance to get back on the winning trail. Inspireus has been in poor form and his figures flatter him as he's been beaten a long way the last twice though he does hold Big Time Frank on latest running at Uttoxeter. Invicta Lake is now fourteen and has been racing over hurdles though is now 17lb lower than his last victory over fences.
