Verdict

HAPPY AND FINE has been suited by a switch to chasing this season and, given he had something to spare when scoring at Leicester recently, he's worth a chance to double his tally in this sphere. Regal Blue is one to consider after a solid chasing debut and Ned Tanner looked unlucky not to win on his last completed start, so he's another one to consider.
