This looks a great opportunity for Onefortheroadtom to finally get off the mark over fences where he is dropping down in level from his respectable run in a Grade 3 race at Cheltenham last time. Shanroe Al C has looked good in his two appearance over fences so far and can continue his excellent start to his chase campaign with another big run, while Charlie Stout has already had success over fences and should be in contention here at the business end of the race on his handicap chase debut.
