Venetia Williams saddled the winner of this in 2021 and can repeat the dose with EASY AS THAT, who made it 2-3 in this sphere with an impressive display at Newcastle where he jumped with aplomb. He has low mileage for a horse of his age and looks a smart chaser in the making. Hudson de Grugy has yet to shine over fences but is interesting back here with conditions likely to be testing, while Baron de Midleton also needs considering.
