Indevan, a Grade 3 winner over hurdles, didn't show much on his chasing bow at Kilbeggan but will have come on for the experience. Call Rog ran his best race to date over fences at Roscommon though mistakes cost him a place at least and he'll need to jump better. CHILL had a spin on the Flat after two very good runs over fences last month. He'll be ready for this and can gain his first success over fences on just his third start. Wells China won once in 22 starts over timber but showed that chasing could be his game when attempting to concede 7lb to Most Chaste at Wexford. With further progress likely he could provide the main threat.
