A competitive handicap chase with the narrow vote in favour of MON STORM. His exploits were mixed over hurdles last season but he may well have a little more to offer in this sphere and, with a recent reappearance spin under his belt, a bold showing can be expected. Champagne Beauty, Knockmoylan and The Echo Boy head up the dangers.
