Verdict
Grey Skies has shown little in three outings over fences so far while TELHIMLISTEN makes his chasing debut. But the latter has won his last four outings over timber including at Huntingdon last week and given he’s due to be raised 14lb after this, Jennie Candlish’s charge is hard to oppose if taking to the larger obstacles.
