Verdict
The four-year-old I SEE YOU WELL is not badly treated on these terms and didn’t fare too badly when fifth over fences at Ascot earlier in the month. That was a better effort than Dreamcatching’s fifth at Ludlow on his chasing bow and the former gets the nod. Saffron Wells has placed over fences in the past but the McManus duo Drumcliff and Action Replay makes their chasing debuts and are closely matched on handicap ratings. Coeur Tantre is another taking on the larger obstacles for the first time and is 7lb higher than his latest success over timber.
