Verdict

Veteran BEACON EDGE showed his well-being with a recent point victory for his new yard so this one-time smart winning chaser looks the way to go. Recent Warwick hunter scorer Golden Son rates the obvious danger, with Snipe and Haven't Time appealing as the pick of the rest in the battle for minor honours.
