Formscan By Tom Weekes - A chance is taken that PRINCE ZALTAR will be ready following over a year off, as he is well handicapped in this sphere. A three-time winner and runner-up in an Aintree hurdle when rated 121 last December, he has competed in just two career chases but finished a good second on his latest effort and represents a yard which is doing well. Optional Mix has failed to capitalise on a lower hurdle rating in recent times but is better over fences. She won her previous chase race in June and today’s rider claims 7lb. Five-time winner Where’s Frankie is much better than he showed over hurdles at Navan last month but nonetheless would prefer further than today’s distance.
