Verdict

CHIRICO VALLIS may be a 10-y-o but he has got back on track over fences upped in trip this season. He followed success at Chepstow with a good third in the Classic Chase at Warwick and can return to winning ways back at 3m. Dingo Dollar also ran well in a good handicap last time when third in the Rehearsal Chase, while Belami des Pictons has to be respected for Venetia Williams.
