Verdict

A fine handicap chase for a Monday afternoon in which a case can be made for the majority of the runners. FAYETTE COUNTY carries top-weight but with justification after an excellent effort at Cheltenham in November, and could benefit for coming here a relatively fresh horse. No Planning is capable of more over this trip and was just making a move when departing as the key cards were played in the Rehearsal Chase in November, but it is the first time tongue tied youngster Bigirononhiship who has produced two excellent efforts here already this winter that is likely to give the Tim Vaughan trained raider the most to do. 1. Fayette County 2. Bigirononhiship 3. No Planning
