PASSING KATE (3) can get her head back in front today after being unable to get competitive in a recent chase here down at 3200m. She is a previous victor over the distance with five wins overall and has first time headgear enlisted today. Big effort expected. IMPERIAL BEDE (1) must be feared off the back of a 1.5 length win at Catterick two weeks back where jumped well. Not unduly penalised and cheekpieces maintained. ZESTFUL HOPE (2) won this contest last year but must step up on latest form. Only one run of substance this season. ZACONY REBEL (5) has a bit to find but was placed here on last visit to the track.
