Faye Bramley has already won a big handicap chase here this season and perhaps WINSTON JUNIOR can repeat the feat over hurdles for his emerging stable. Manlaga impressed when seeing off a couple of these in the Victor Ludorum and is second choice ahead of the same owner's Saratoga, who looks to have been laid out for this. Bibe Mus, whose 5 lb penalty for his win at Sandown on Saturday gets him into the race, and Ammes also make the shortlist.
