Verdict

Willie Mullins has won three of the last four renewals of this race but he only has one runner this time around and it might be worth taking a chance on something at a likely bigger price. FUN MAC shaped like a return to form may be near at Chester last time and he's well suited to a marathon trip; now very well treated on old form, he could be the one they all have to beat. Couer De Lion's handicap mark looks lenient after his five length success at Chester last time out while Cosmelli could relish this step up in trip.
  1. Fun Mac
  2. Coeur de Lion
  3. Cosmelli
