Verdict

BLAKLION has put in some impressive weight carrying performances in the past and he can gain compensation for his early exit at Aintree earlier this month by taking this prestigious staying chase. The selection is versatile in terms of ground conditions and can get the better of Missed Approach who showed that he is in good heart when winning at Cheltenham last time out while Rathlin Rose who boasts an impressive record at this venue can take third ahead of Theatre Guide who ran well in this race 12 months ago.
  1. Blaklion
