Verdict

A really tricky contest this and everything points to needing something quite well handicapped so a chance is taken on PEAK TO PEAK despite his struggles first time back after a lengthy absence. He is only 1lb higher than his Silver Trophy third now and if all ability remains he will take plenty of beating for championship leader Paul Nicholls. Nicholls' rival Nicky Henderson also saddles an interesting unexposed sort in Kings Ryde who could very easily be much better than what we've seen from him so far. The form of Myplaceatmidnight means he has to be respected.
