Verdict

PEACHES AND CREAM was an impressive winner on his sole attempt over this sort of trip at Punchestown last season and looks set for another big run after his promising return to chasing at Cheltenham in November. Last year's winner Magna Sam is next best ahead of first-season chasers Landen Calling and Inis Oirr.
