Forecasts

Jonbon (1/4), Editeur Du Gite (15/2), Fugitif (10/1), Elixir De Nutz (22/1), Nube Negra (22/1)

A fourth Clarence House staged here in the past 11 years following an abandonment at Ascot the previous week and with El Fabiolo staying at home, this looks a gilt-edged opportunity for JONBON to register an eighth success over fences before again locking horns with Willie Mullins' superstar in the Champion Chase at the Festival. Editeur du Gite rates as the obvious threat, while December Gold Cup winner Fugitif adds another layer of intrigue having another crack at graded level.
