Verdict

PAINT THE CLOUDS has won this event for the past two years and looks the most likely winner of the 2017 renewal. He brings top class hunter chase form into this race and despite his advancing years showed no signs of decline when last seen in action back in May and he is taken to get the better of the improving Ardea who finished runner-up at Wetherby last time out and One More Tune who finished second to the selection in this race in 2016. 1. Paint The Clouds 2. Ardea 3. One More Tune
