PRIMOZ probably didn't progress as well as might have been expected from an impressive winning chasing debut last autumn, but he had excuses in big-field Festival handicaps on his final 2 outings and is fancied to get back on track with his sights very much lowered on his comeback. Last-year's winner Pay The Piper is also capable fresh and warrants respect having been given a chance by the assessor, while chasing-debutant Dog Fox also enters calculations.
