SHANTOU ROCK developed into a smart novice chaser last season when set some really stiff tasks and Dan Skelton's charge is an excellent jumper which can see him make every yard of the running here. Garde La Victoire may not be quite as good as he once was but he remains a classy chaser nevertheless and he is rated the main danger. Champagne At Tara comes here seeking a hat-trick after two easy wins so he too is worth considering.
