Verdict

WEATHER FRONT left the impression that he's well worth another crack at this trip when fifth in a competitive listed handicap at Cheltenham, and Iain Jardine's charge gets the nod back in calmer waters here. Get Out The Gate returned to form when runner-up over fences last time and will be a threat if matching that form back hurdling, while Present Chief and Arthur Mac are others to consider.

  1. WEATHER FRONT (USA)
  2. GET OUT THE GATE (IRE)
  3. PRESENT CHIEF (IRE)
