Verdict

HEWICK was running well before he came down in the Cheltenham Gold Cup and, provided he's none the worse for that, he should be able to capitalise on this drop in grade. Solo will be a danger if allowed his own way in front and Fantastic Lady deserves a mention on the back of an excellent second in the Topham.

  1. HEWICK (IRE)
  2. SOLO (FR)
  3. FANTASTIC LADY (FR)
