Paul Nicholls comes here with MALAYA having skipped the Fred Winter and that might pay off handsomely. He ran fine race behind Redicean in the Adonis and looks to be on a fair mark going handicapping. Turning Gold is perhaps best of the Cheltenham posse, with Eragon De Chanay having had a busy time of things and Knight Destroyer an early faller there. All three would have claims on best form. City Dreamer cannot be factored out of contention.
