Tadabeer won twice on the Polytrack in the spring but has yet to suggest he stays this far and is likely to be short enough in the betting here. Conigre finished tailed off in a maiden chase last time but there are possibilities about Towcester third Social Realism and Twyford was second in a novices' handicap at Newton Abbot four weeks ago. UMUSTBEJOKING ran in better company at the same track last time and would have finished closer had she not been heavily eased once headed on the turn for home. She won over fences in her native France and must have some sort of chance in this grade. Feeling and Pobs Trophy look best of the rest with competent claimers on board.
