Only Karisma King arrived in form but the pair that came to the fore had both dropped a long way in the weights and bounced back returning from breaks; it was a soundly-run affair, no doubting the bare result, and is form to view fairly positively at this stage.

BOX OFFICE (FR) was strong in the betting after 6 months off and proved a different proposition to previous chase starts, taking advantage of a much-reduced mark and doing so in style, certainly value for extra; held up, jumped well in main, travelled strongly, took closer order before eighth, close up 3 out, jumped on last, had plenty in hand; he's likely to progress further now that he's got his act together over fences and is capable of following up.

THE CLOCK LEARY (IRE) ran well on first outing since leaving Venetia Williams after 4 months off, very much a step back in the right direction, unlucky to bump into one that also revived and was so far ahead of its mark; chased leaders, went with enthusiasm, led after 4 out, headed last, one paced, no match for winner; he's no banker to hold it together but will remain well treated on old form.

LEMON'S GENT is handicapped to the hilt but ran one of this season's better races; led until fifth, remained prominent, led again tenth, headed again after 4 out, held between last 2, no extra.

KARISMA KING wasn't in the same form as when winning here last time, only running from 2 lb higher, but this was a much hotter race as it turned out; close up, led fifth, headed tenth, held before 3 out.

ULIS DE VASSY (FR) continues out of sorts; dropped out, bad mistake fifth, tailed off eighth; no longer worth a rating.

SOME FINISH (IRE) is becoming increasingly temperamental; prominent, not jump well, raced lazily, lost place sixth, beaten long way out.
