Buywise developed into a very smart chaser last season, winning four times including twice here. But all of his form was over further than this and he is probably having an outing before resuming his chase career. Prince Khurram has become very disappointing but Jupiter Storm is interesting as he won four times on the Flat on good ground or faster. AREA FIFTY ONE put his Flat speed to good use when cutting down the more experienced Andi'Amu at Uttoxeter earlier this month. There should be more to come from Nicky Henderson's charge, who is rated over 100 on the level, and he can defy his penalty.
