Verdict
Tiger Spirit won this at a big price last term but is 4lb higher and finished behind third-placed Freewheelin at Newcastle last month. Zephlyn also ran well at the latter track recently but OH SO CHIC was beaten only a nose on soft ground at Catterick last autumn with Cloudy Rose behind and may well make a winning debut for a new yard on her reappearance. Calevade and Zuckerberg make most appeal of those fit from racing over jumps.
