HOME BY THE LEE has been off the track since posting an excellent sixth in the Stayers' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival but still looks very much the one to beat here. Salvador Ziggy should benefit from this step up in trip so is next on the list in his bid for a four-timer, with Duffle Coat appealing as the pick of the remainder for minor honours.
