A weak handicap chase in which it might be worth taking a chance on TAMGHO BORGET from a basement mark. Although yet to show much under Rules, he's a well-bred ex-pointer for whom handicap chasing has likely always been the target, and he could play a big part here. Askinvillar has a similar profile (although he showed a bit more over hurdles) and recent winner Forget You Not is also a player.
