This will become a right slog should the ground soften and we'll take a real flyer with GREEN WIZARD who hasn't turned into the horse his novice chasing days promised a couple of years ago. Consequently, he continues to move down the weights and is asked to compete here off a rather tempting mark. He was massively impressive here on heavy ground over two years ago and is a very small stakes suggestion in a tough race to unravel. He would not mind any softening of conditions either. Milgen Bay is unproven over this trip whereas Finish The Story will stay much further on any ground and could be interesting with Fehily on board. Always Bold has always had a quirk or three but has gone well here in the past and will be staying on off his lowly weight when others have cried enough. Take A Bow did OK here on his sole chase start and could be a player if not overcome by the inevitable hurly-burly of such a contest.
