Bengal Bullet gets the confident vote to win this hunter chase with Derosa and Karadin rating the main dangers. The selection will relish the ground and was a fair second behind Enitsag last time out. That form has since been franked and he need only run up to that mark to win this. Derosa rates the main danger on his latest second behind River Dante but he lacks the experience of the selection over regulation fences and for that reason he is opposed. Karadin was a fair second behind Let's Fly in a point last time and is another with place claims but this looks tougher. Of the remainder Wendy's Dynamo is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but her overall profile leaves her with a little to find and for the winner we return to Bengal Bullet.
