MISTER UPTON is clearly much more at home in this sphere than he had been over hurdles given the manner of his ready chase-debut win over C&D 18 days ago and he can defy an 8 lb rise. Call Off The Dogs has gradually recaptured his best after an absence and rates the main threat ahead of Hidalgo des Bordes, who had excuses last time.
