In depth
Verdict
The lightly-raced Landscape is sure to be popular in this but he stopped quickly when well beaten over 2m at Haydock last time and it's by no means certain that the step up in distance will suit. Bold Chief looked to be on the way back at Cheltenham and could be set alight up by a pair blinkers while Ifyouletmefinish, Kingcora and Gay Sloane are all eased in grade. Captain Sharpe and Young Hurricane could figure but WATERUNDER made a promising return to action last month and will strip fitter here. David Pipe won this last year and can repeat the trick with last season's Wincanton scorer, who will be even better when tackling fences.
