COURT ROYALE showed a lot of promise on his opening two runs over fences where he has finished second on each occasion. He returns to a class three contest here which gives him a great chance of recording his first chase success. Snapdragon Fire has not fared badly on his two chases appearances so expect him to go close once again, while Envoye Special was pulled up at Kempton last time but he is down in trip here and that should help him finish in the placings.
