Verdict
Eskendash is 0-10 in chases and came up short again in a match last month. LORD SCHNAPPS is back over a more suitable trip and 2lb lower than when second at Worcester back in May so could be worth one more chance with Caddyhill having a first run over fences having switched stables. Away At Dawn hasn’t shown much in his two runs over the larger obstacles so far.
