Verdict

A cracking handicap chase for the time of year. Top weight Irish Cavalier is good enough to win this if on a going day, while Ballyboley looked sure to be involved in the finish before falling at Uttoxeter last time. Both are feared, along with Midnight Cowboy, who could still be well handicapped, but preference is for BROTHER TEDD, who fought hard to beat a good horse at Uttoxeter last time and may be capable of further improvement now he has got his head in front over fences.
  1. Brother Tedd
