      Verdict

      Royal Plaza has struggled over hurdles since winning at Warwick in November and makes his chasing debut. Such A Legend finally won over fences when scoring at Chepstow recently and should go well again but BREATH OF BLIGHTY is preferred. The latter was having only his fifth start over the larger obstacles when winning at Kempton last month and Paul Webber’s charge can defy a 3lb rise. Minella Aris has won over hurdles here and is preferred to fellow chasing debutant Marquis Of Carabas.
