The Brothers has never won in 17 starts though he's done better since tackling fences and is on his lowest ever mark. Glorious Boru was making his chasing debut when placed at Fakenham last month and looks quite well in with his rider's claim taken into consideration though if the veteran BENNYS GIRL runs like she did at Fakenham on New Year's Day there would be only one winner here. Dai Williams' mare arrives with a penalty for a facile victory that day and a similar effort would see her complete a quick double. Inspireus has yet to reach the first three in 14 starts though wasn't beaten far over 2m7f here last time.
