This can be another win for SPECIAL JOHN (nap) who has taken well to fences. His main rival is Ballyfinn.
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.
