A match on paper. Saby has already had two bows over chase fences in France and certainly should not lack for experience. However, we will make no apologies for sticking with English form and putting up Korelo as our selection. A third to Rhinestone Cowboy at Cheltenham obviously catches the eye and while we accept that that particular race was run off a highly dubious pace, there is every chance that he should have improved for the run. Skylarker was rated 80+ on the flat over middle distances but his best form was on a significantly faster surface. Watch The Dove could be the one to benefit if the principals are not up to scratch. Third to Thisthatantother in a novice event at Wincanton, he is yet to conclusive lyprove that he can handle the surface but he is the most likely danger of those remaining.
