Verdict

CALL ME VIC has won around here over hurdles and would have no problems landing this if repeating his latest effort when just failing to concede 8lb to Belmount at Ludlow. Chase The Wind made massive strides from his opening run over fences when a close second to Royale Django at Worcester and looks the only logical threat as Killshannon has failed to reach a place in any of his eight starts and has generally been beaten some way.
