A Beginners' Chase in which only three of the six declared runners can be considered as possible winners. Alfie's Choice makes his debut over fences following a productive year in 2018 (C&D winner in October) and should go close with a safe round of jumping. However, when delving into SQUOUATEUR's past (formerly with Gordon Elliott), his chance becomes all too obvious. Although ideally suited by a softer racing surface than is forecast, his 2018 Kim Muir third to Missed Approach shines like the proverbial beacon at this level.
