VERDICT: Corbetts Cross wasn't disgraced when finishing sixth in the King George over 3m at Kempton and he warrants respect, though there is a suspicion that he may find things happening too quickly for him over this reduced trip. That said, last year's winner Pic D'Orhy gets the vote. The 10-year-old took advantage of an excellent opportunity when scoring over C&D on his seasonal reappearance in November and that should have put him cherry ripe for another tilt at this. Runner-up behind the selection in this last year, L'Homme Presse boasts strong credentials following his Cotswold Chase success at Cheltenham last month.
