This looks a bit of a match-race on paper between
CHRISTMAS IN APRIL and
Manofthemountain. The former gets the nod having run so well in a similar slog at Chepstow latest; cheekpieces could be a real boost to this sometimes quirky individual. The latter lost his unbeaten record over fences when unseating latest but he is still feared despite a 6lb rise for his Southwell success the time before.
Tea Time On Mars outran 50/1 odds for a long way at Chepstow and that combined with him winning his final start over hurdles suggest a horse on the up.
