Race preview
THE COMPOSEUR is a half-brother to Welsh National winner Secret Reprieve and gets the nod to win on his chase debut after relishing the 3m trip in his short hurdling campaign. The Dan Skelton-trained Aheadfullofdreams has valuable experience on his side after three runs over the larger obstacles, but this appears to be a deeper contest to his last three assignments, while No Anxiety made the perfect start over fences and, after the third in that contest has subsequently bolted up, could have further improvement on the horizon.
