Stewards Note:

ACES FULL: Following its run on 3/10/2022 it was reported that the horse had a breathing problem.

I’M A STARMAN returned to the pick of his chase form when runner-up at Wincanton 25 days ago and, with this ease in class an obvious plus, he earns the vote to open his account in this sphere. The participation of Doyen de Ante (due to run at Fontwell Wednesday) would put a different slant on things given the manner of his Chepstow success previously, however RACE TIME DISTANCE
