TANGANYIKA (7) already won three times on heavy ground. Could have more to offer tackling fences this season. The Venetia Williams-trained chaser finished an excellent second over further at Uttoxeter in March. Could be primed for his return to action. Top weight PROTEKTORAT (1) was runner-up behind a noted performer attempting the G1 Melling Chase at Aintree in April. Could go well back among handicap company despite testing conditions. MARBLE SANDS (6) arrives fit from a recent good effort on the flat and cannot be ruled out now revisiting chasing. BEAUPORT (3) makes each-way appeal with conditions set to suit.
