Chase winner in 2019 and finally off the mark over hurdles at Huntingdon in May. Creditable third at Worcester 2 weeks ago and not taken lightly back over fences.

Modest maiden on the Flat and poor over hurdles, but positive start over fences, runner-up twice before going one better when beating Getawaytonewbay by 2 lengths over C&D last time. Big shout.

Forecasts

Air Hair Lair (3/1), Getawaytonewbay (4/1), Bagan (9/2), Scaramucci (6/1), Sad Eyed Dylan (8/1), Babytaggle (10/1), Game In The Park (12/1), Mariners Moon (16/1), Gaia Vallis (16/1), Ben Buie (20/1), Beautiful Ben (22/1), This Breac (40/1), Silvretta Schwarz (66/1), St Merryn (200/1)

Verdict

AIR HAIR LAIR has taken very well to fences, beating Getawaytonewbay by 2 lengths over C&D last time, and is taken to follow up. Getawaytonewbay has an excellent record here and is 2 lb better off with the selection, so rates the main threat again. Scaramucci and Babytaggle are long-standing maidens but are capable of making the frame.
