Verdict

An interesting handicap chase in which it's difficult to rule out many. There was plenty to like about the way REALLYNTRUTHFULLY went about things on last month's Fontwell chase debut and he's selected to give the weight away and make it 2-2 over fences. Ben Pauling has his team in good form so Fine Casting has to be of interest off a good mark based on his exploits when last seen over fences in the 2023/24 season. Moonshine Man and Margaret's Legacy also make the shortlist.
