Unexposed chaser GOLAN LOOP (1) goes well on decent ground and looks the one to side with. The Warren Greatrex-trained son of Walk In The Park managed to build on a pleasing chase debut second to score in fine style at Haydock last time out. A 7lb climb in weights might not be enough to prevent a repeat success. May come out on top. KILBARRY HILL (2) stayed on well delivering a good third in a stronger handicap chase at Wetherby before falling early doors at Warwick last time. The hat-trick-seeking ALI STAR BERT (6) also needs to be considered with a course and distance record of four wins from eleven starts. RULE ME IN (7) might go well.
