Another modest contest on paper, and somewhat of a thankless task in terms of identifying the likeliest winner with only traces of reliable chasing form on offer. Imperial Prince has stacks of experience over fences (0-15), most notably on the west coast of Scotland at Ayr and he's undoubtedly capable of winning a race of this nature, while Gatacre Street is one top keep an eye upon in the market exchanges. However, without any degree of conviction the pin falls on the top-weight SPEAK OF THE DEVIL for the bang-in-form Lucinda Russell. Out of his depth behind a 132-rated hurdler at Hexham latest, he could be the type to improve for the switch to the larger obstacles.
