TIGHTENOURBELTS jumped with aplomb when doubling his tally over fences at Exeter last month and, having been nudged up just 3 lb, Emma Lavelle's 7-y-o is fancied to go in again. The main threat may emerge from Neon Moon, who found the Rehearsal Chase too much at Newcastle recently but drops appreciably in grade here. The returning Christopher Wood can edge out Balkardy for third.
