The race returns to Huntingdon (run at Taunton last year) attracting a decent field with 2016 winner and 2017 runner-up
Josses Hill returning from wind surgery in a bid to regain his crown but he faces a tough job to do so.
CHARBEL showed last time out at Ascot that he was up to winning at this level and his Chepstow win giving subsequent BetVictor Gold Cup winner 12lb is on reflection a very solid piece of form.
Rene’s Girl deserves her chance at this level judged on her Aintree run of last season despite having work to do on official ratings. A penalty has been carried successfully a few times in this race and that won’t rule out Haldon Gold Cup winner –
God’s Own from making a bold bid.
