SOME SCOPE showed the benefit of his chase debut experience and was value for extra when opening his account in this sphere at Catterick 32 days ago, 3 lengths clear when eased close home. A 5 lb rise for that success looks fair and he rates a big player with the prospect of more to come. No But I Will and Snipe finished 1-2 respectively at Wetherby recently and that pair head up the dangers.
