Verdict

Alan King has a fine strike-rate with his runners here and GRANDEUR D'AME (NAP) was having only his third start over fences when battling to victory at Huntingdon for which he's been raised 5lb. Thelasthighking won a Doncaster handicap hurdle at this time last year and started favourite for a Warwick novices' chase in November but was well beaten. Greenrock Abbey has won two of four starts over fences but is 12lb higher than his last success while Extraordinary Man made his chasing debut in a three-runner race at Leicester when he was beaten four lengths. Tiger Voice has won from much higher marks in Ireland and has been racing in stronger company,
