Verdict

A competitive field for this valuable contest but the potential fly in the ointment is the only once raced over fences COBOLOBO for Jonjo O'Neill. This absolute giant of a horse always looked likely to be considerably better over fences than hurdles and his short head second to a Grade One winner first time up was evidence of that. He could be thrown in now over fences off this sort of mark so is fancied to take this. Hat-trick seeking Some Chaos, ultra-consistent Mercers Court and attractively handicapped Captain Buck's are all potential threats if the selections inexperience finds him out.
  1. Cobolobo
  2. Some Chaos
  3. Mercers Court
