Verdict
HIGHBURY HIGH is difficult to get away from in this as both victories over fences have come over similar trips and he was beaten under a length at Fontwell last month off today's mark. Daulys Anthem has been racing over further this year and is hard to predict but Whos De Baby has been placed in his last three completed starts, though still hasn't won in 11 starts under Rules and six between the flags. Drumlang looks a light of former days and the others are even harder to fancy.
