Course winner was victorious by 18L in a handicap hurdle over an extended 2m3f at Lingfield (good-to-soft) in January. Well beaten at Sandown (2m, soft) subsequently and interesting to see how he fares on first chase start in nearly five years.
Built on some promising chase efforts when winning by 9Lover C&D on good going here earlier this month. Raised 7lb for that victory and is of interest once more.
Course winner pulled up on his two most recent starts including behind Brother Bennett over C&D earlier this month. Returning from nearly 11 months off the track that day and market support would be notable.
Improved on return from a break when finishing runner-up over 2m2f at Fontwell (good) ten days ago. Races off a 1lb lower mark here and is seeking a first victory in nearly two years.

BROTHER BENNETT impressed when winning here last time out and he is taken to follow-up with a victory in this five runner handicap chase. Second place can go to No No Cardinal who finished runner-up at Fontwell on his most recent outing while Kastani Beach, a hurdles winner this season can finish third on his return to fences.
