Verdict

ASKMEROE seems to have solid claims on this Beginners Chase so has our confidence in preference to Colleton River and Rocheford Bridge. With winning from over timber the selection has looked progressive since switched to fences and given that she'll love these conditions she looks the standout choice. Colleton River was a useful enough flat performer and finally showed some of that ability last time so if building on that could go close as could Rocheford Bridge if returning to his hurdles form. Kyle's Turn makes some appeal for place money going by his point and bumper form but this race looks at the mercy of Askmeroe.
