Lovenormoney (11/4), Present Times (3/1), Poker Play (5/1), Solomn Grundy (7/1), Delire D'Estruval (7/1), Dancing Shadow (8/1), Charming Zen (8/1), Overland Flyer (10/1), Dadsintrouble (12/1)
An interesting renewal and this race has a good record of producing Cheltenham Festival winners (two of the last four winners being successful there). Overland Flyer looked a useful horse last year and proved he can win when fresh and along with Charming Zen who needs to bounce back from a poor run but is capable of doing so look to provide a couple of dangers. The overall vote goes to bottom weight PRESENT TIMES who is better off with his conqueror here last time Lovenormoney and can regain the winning thread over a C&D he’s been successful over before. Poker Play could play a part if he bounces back from his previous poor run while a duo that return from chasing Solomn Grundy and Dadsintrouble both have a chance having previously been useful in this sphere.
