Just a small field go to post for this Hunter Chase with some of the runners having shown plenty of ability in the past. MURRAYANA looks to be the slightly more reliable of the quintet and having won well on his recent point-to-point start looks to have a sound chance on his Hunter Chase debut. Apple’s Queen should also be respected having won her last two starts in point-to-points but her Rules form (in France) doesn’t quite match up to that of Murrayana. Both Loch Ba and Tony Star were useful over fences in the past but look to have regressed a little now based on their recent efforts. 1. Murrayana 2. Apple's Queen 3. Tony Star
