Verdict

A fascinating top-level novice chase that should turn into a match between BRAVEMANSGAME and Ahoy Senor, with the first-named marginally preferred having jumped with tremendous accuracy on both chase outings to date. The latter demolished a small field in a Grade 2 at Newbury last time, so he's unlikely to go down without a fight. Tea Clipper could take advantage if they both fluff their lines.
