Always a horse to be seriously respected in staying chases, THE YOUNG MASTER is fancied here and having won at the meeting a year ago everything seemingly points to a bold bid and the stronger race he won next at Cheltenham is more persuasive evidence in his favour. Theatre Guide ended last term with two fine efforts himself and he rates a big danger. Dell' Arca isn't always the best jumper but he is capable off this lower chase mark.
