TOP OTHE RA can complete a double if taking up this engagement given that he is also entered at Cheltenham today. The selection has the ground and trip to suit and can defy a 4lb rise for his latest success by getting the better of Oscars Den, another to have tasted success already this month while Yaha Fizz, a winner three times last winter can claim third on his seasonal debut.
