Verdict

Probably best to narrow this down to the improvers towards the bottom of the weights, with the Paul Nicholls-trained HUELGOAT taken to extend his unbeaten chase record to 3 at the expense of Midnight Jewel and Punxsutawney Phil. Chase-newcomer Godrevy Point would also come into the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong on his reappearance.
