Verdict

Verdict

No Walkover and Grazeon Sunshine both arrive here on the back of bumper victories and they have to be respected as a result. That said, a chance can be taken with MOMENTS IN TIME, who makes his debut for Dan Skelton having bolted up in an Irish point-to-point earlier in the year. That form suggests that the four-year-old could be well above average and he merits plenty of respect.

Top Tip: Moments In Time (6)
Watch out for: No Walkover (2)

The Skeltons won this last year with a really useful sort and their former point scorer MOMENTS IN TIME is taken to get his career under rules off to a successful start. He was going to win anyway when left well clear and the 4lb he receives from the two previous bumper winners here can make a difference. Wonder Flying has performed with credit in two starts at Cheltenham and should find this easier, so rates the danger ahead No Walkover, who showed a good attitude on debut but does have a penalty to defy.
