1.50 MILL GREEN; 2.75 MR ONE MORE (IRE); 3.00 MONSIEUR LECOQ (FR); 5.00 GINGEMBRE MENTHE (FR).
A good novice chase for the time of year, and MILL GREEN makes plenty of appeal on the evidence of his best hurdles form. He bumped into a good one on his only previous chase outing and his latest seventh behind subsequent Grade 1 scorer Galopin Des Champs in the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham is very strong form. Monsieur Lecoq carries a penalty for his emphatic Leicester success and heads the list of dangers from Mr One More.
