MELON lost little in defeat behind Fakir D'Oudairies on debut and will be hard to beat here, albeit City Island is a Cheltenham Festival winner who could easily make into a high-class chaser himself. He's the biggest danger based on his hurdles exploits, especially as Cappucimix may find this trip on the sharp side having got outpaced at a crucial stage at Navan.
