Verdict

UNEXPECTED PARTY made a smooth transition to this scene when scoring at Taunton last month and he is taken to book his ticket for the big hunter at next month's Cheltenham Festival by following up here. The pick for forecast purposes is Shearer, who is 2-3 in hunters and his yard's record in this race commands respect. Good Boy Bobby is best of the rest.

  1. UNEXPECTED PARTY (FR)
  2. SHEARER (IRE)
  3. GOOD BOY BOBBY (IRE)
