INTENSE APPROACH will be suited by the return to 3m+ and is taken to enhance his excellent strike-rate and make it 2-2 over fences. Leave of Absence was a decisive winner in handicap company at Newbury when last seen in the spring and is second choice ahead of Welcome To Cartries, who should find this a bit easier than the Graded races he contested on both chase starts last season.
