Point-to-point winner BOLD SKY can register a first chase success at the second time of asking in this beginners chase. Gordon Elliott's charge ran well to finish runner-up on just her second start over fences and she can get the better of fellow mare Dawn In The Park who makes her chase debut today. Artic Pearl ran well at Tramore last time out and he can finish third.
