A competitive Beginners Chase. THE BIG LENSE was eye-catching in defeat at Punchestown, as he looked in need of a step up in trip. This looks a tricky contest with a number in with a shout. Invincible Cave was impressive in his point-to-point victory and should relish this. Plan of Attack and Sound Money to fight out minor honours.
