ORNUA won in this grade last time out at Clonmel and this longer trip poses no major concerns. He does have to concede 3lb to the runner-up
Cadmium in this rematch but should prove up to it.
Classic Theatre has ground to make up on both, so
Winter Escape might prove more likely to trouble the top pair.
Cubomania is in excellent heart, though this tougher than the chases he has been wining while
Mitchouka would have made a winning chase debut recently only for crashing out at the final fence. The second of Gordon Elliott's runners in this field, he'll have compensation on his mind.
- Ornua
- Cadmium
- Winter Escape
