Verdict

Lordhalfnothin' impressed when winning at Fontwell on his chasing debut and can score again. He jumped right on that occasion so this track should suit him. Phildari's third at Wincanton last time makes him an obvious danger while the French-bred Good Bone is hard to fully assess. Overall, though, Lordhalfnothin' gets the nod.
