Verdict

Grand Annual Chase victor SKY PIRATE is fancied to strip fitter for his comeback second to Before Midnight at Cheltenham and also enjoys an 8 lb pull in the weights with that rival so can turn the tables on Sam Thomas' progressive sort. Amoola Gold and Monsieur Lecoq also needs considering in a tightly-knit handicap.
