MONKEY PUZZLE has finished runner-up on both of his starts to date including on his rules debut at Doncaster last time out. The selection looks likely to appreciate this step up in trip based on his point-to-point debut in a decent looking event 12 months ago and he can see off bumper winners Robin The Raven who finished well beaten in a Grade 1 contest at Cheltenham last time out and Take To Heart who can step up on his hurdling debut by claiming third in this.
