R Dickin
Unplaced in all six starts. Well beaten at 40-1 behind Opera Og when fifth of 6 on her chase debut here over 2m (soft) earlier this month.
Race Verdict
Valid Point was in the process of running a big race when coming down at Newbury last time and there could be more to come from him over fences, but KASBADALI is fancied to make a winning chasing debut. He landed a competitive handicap hurdle at Ascot last month and he could take plenty of beating here if taking to the larger obstacles. Midnight Sail, Rhum and Valento are also likely contenders in a fascinating novices' chase.
Selection: Kasbadali
Danger: Valid Point
Alternative: Midnight Sail
