Verdict

CHAPEL HOUSE scored over C&D last month and is taken to follow-up as Jonathan Bailey's claim negates a big chunk of a 7lb penalty and the amateur rider has a good strike rate over fences. Bohemian Rock wasn't far behind the selection last time and should go well again, while Brousse En Feux showed a bit more on his latest outing and is another to consider. Bennynthejets has the past form to get involved and should have come on for last month's reappearance at this track, but it's hard to make a case for any of the remainder.
