Verdict
This won't take much winning and top weight Brave Helios must have every chance of opening his account, though was still beaten 13 lengths when second at Towcester in January. War And Contrition is still pulling too hard but was third to the useful Bidourey at Leicester two runs ago and Lyssio has won twice over hurdles, though both times on much faster going than this. CROUCHING HARRY (NAP) won on the Polytrack in December and has run well in a couple of subsequent starts on the all-weather. It will be a surprise if he's not good enough to go close in a race like this.
