      Verdict

      A small but select field go to post for this novice chase and the TEAMtalk selection is Joss Naylor. The Be My Native gelding won and jumped in impressive style at Uttoxeter, when defeating Its Only Polite and despite his penalty he is confidently expected to score. Saint Par rates the main danger on hurdle form. Paul Nicholls' charge goes on any ground and ran as if need of his latest run at Chepstow. He is sure to have been well schooled for this his first novice chase and any market confidence could be significant. Jakari looks a chaser in the making and he to should strip fitter than when third at Carlisle behind Pornic but on hurdles form he has plenty to find with Joss Naylor and Saint Par. Eluna was fourth behind Vol Solitaire on her chase debut over a shorter trip and she is sure to be suited by this longer distance. Tarasco is from a yard that is going through a quiet spell, while Ebony Light and Dare look outclassed.
