Verdict

All eyes will be on Alan King's big Champion Hurdle hope YANWORTH as he puts the finishing touches to his Cheltenham preparation, having being re-routed here after a slight setback. On official figures he should have little trouble adding to his tally, though Ch'tibello showed enough when only five-and-a-half lengths behind at Kempton that he shouldn't be underestimated on 4lb better terms. Alan King's other runner, Sceau Royal, is better than he showed behind Irving at Newcastle last time and can also make his presence felt. 1. Yanworth 2. Ch'tibello 3. Sceau Royal
