      Verdict

      WENDIGO has created an excellent impression since switched to fences and looks to face a straightforward task here on the back of his third in Kempton's Grade 1 Kauto Star on Boxing Day. Maximilian appeals as the one to chase home Jamie Snowden's promising young stayer.

      Wendigo (Fr) silk

      Useful novice hurdler last term and has taken really well to chasing, winning 2½m Newbury Grade 2 novice in November before a good staying-on third of 6 in Kauto Star Chase at Kempton (3m) following month. Hard to beat on these terms.

      Maximilian (Ger) silk

      A smart novice hurdler in 2022/23. Very lightly raced since but has posted fairly useful efforts when runner-up in maiden chases at Haydock and Doncaster last month. Carried head rather awkwardly last time and cheekpieces go on now.

      Donny Boy (Ire) silk

      Fairly useful hurdler/chaser. It's now 13 runs since his last win in 2021 though and he has been off for 14 months since being pulled up in 23f handicap chase at Newcastle. Hard to warm to.
