      Verdict

      Predator was an impressive winner over hurdles last time and can follow up this afternoon on his chase debut at the main expense of Luckycharm and Coralbrook. The selection's victory was at Hereford when easily accounting for Madam Caversfield. He has always looked the type to enjoy the larger obstacles and he looks the best option this afternoon. Luckycharm threw off his rider at Market Rasen on Saturday night and it is interesting that he returns to the track so quickly. He could be the one to chase home Predator. Coralbrook didn't put in much of an effort on his chase debut last time out but should improve for the experience. The rest of the field make little appeal and so we return to Predator, who looks the likely winner.
