Verdict
SKILLED came unstuck on his hat-trick bid over fences at Worcester last month but he’s better treated over hurdles and won here in August. Olly Murphy’s charge could recoup losses, though Bohemian Rhapsody is dangerously well handicapped if back to anywhere near his best and is another to have won here in the past. Chilly Miss is frustrating but now 4lb lower than when last successful whereas Zamoyski was raised 8lb after winning a lesser contest here last time. Thankyou Very Much is better over fences nowadays.
