Forecasts

Presenting Percy (9/4), Let's Dance (9/4), Bacardys (4/1), Alpha Des Obeaux (9/2), Diamond Cauchois (5/1), Augusta Kate (8/1), Lieutenant Colonel (16/1), Admiral Brian (66/1)

Verdict

The Willie Mullins pair Bacardys and Lets Dance both need to go well here as a below par performance from either could scupper ant Cheltenham plans their master trainer may have for them but PRESENTING PERCY looks the main stumbling block to the duo's chances here following a win in the Pertemps at last season's Cheltenham festival and a facile success over the larger obstacles last month.
  1. Presenting Percy
  2. Bacardys
  3. Let's Dance
