SOPHIE OLIVIA was a most impressive winner of her first start over fences and her jumping that day was a real positive so she gets the nod despite a 8lb rise. Trongate has also made a good start to his chasing career winning before finishing second latest over C&D in a similar contest off the same mark. There are several newcomers to fences with Henry's Joy of particular interest for Donald McCain who won this contest last year with a chasing debutant.
