From the family of very smart chaser Hammersly Lake and having shown plenty in points promises to do better over fences judged by his good second at Chepstow (19.4f) 3 weeks ago. Big shout in what looks a weak contest.

Won Chepstow handicap hurdle early last year but hasn't really fired since, including on recent chase bow there. Stiffer test on this ground should suit.

Fortunate winner at Taunton on chase debut a year ago but hasn't been able to match that form since. Cheekpieces go on.

Forecasts

Begin The Luck (5/2), Kap Chidley (11/4), Abaya Du Mathan (5/1), Eurowork (11/2), After The Fox (11/2), El Rojo Grande (15/2), Master Mikey Dee (8/1), Man Of The North (28/1)

Verdict

KAP CHIDLEY made a very promising start over fences at Chepstow 3 weeks ago and is hard to get away from here with the prospect of more to come. Begin The Luck could be the danger.
