Formscan - Anthony Honeyball trained the winner last year with Leave Of Absence and he has a solid chance again with the consistent CATCHINTSAVO, twice a winner over hurdles and second in the Sefton at Aintree in April. Likely to be well schooled, he looks set for a good season and is preferred to Butch Cassidy. The winner of his last two, Henry de Bromhead's six-year-old has an experience edge but may fall a fraction short under his penalty. Derryhassen Paddy is another to consider in an intriguing contest.
