A small-field contest in which tactics could prove extremely significant. WENDIGO (1) is a high-potential gelding maintaining form. Ran third in the G1 Kauto Star Novices Chase at Kempton Park after landing the G2 John Francome Novices Chase at Newbury. Holds leading claims. MAXIMILIAN (3) opened the campaign attempting 4300m at Haydock Park with a solid second then placed second again tackling 4800m at Doncaster. Reliable this season and likely to be thereabouts. In the mix. DONNY BOY (2) returns from a 425-day break. Contesting 4700m at Newcastle when last seen pulled up. Long absence but ability might resurface if ready. Worth including.
