RACING POST VERDICT
This can be another win for SPECIAL JOHN (nap) who has taken well to fences. His main rival is Ballyfinn.
Racing Post Pick
Special John
Our Expert Tip
Ballyfin beat Gata Ban not too long ago and looks a big price considering that form. The step back up in trip should suit him well and he looks capable of running another solid race. However, Special John looks a genuinely improving horse at the moment and, if that improvement continues, he may prove hard to beat. I do expect Ballyfin to run well and he can fill the runner-up spot.
