Verdict

BARTON SNOW was really good at Cheltenham and should continue to prove very hard to beat in this sphere. Its On The Line chased home the selection at the Festival and this ultra-consistent sort, who won this in 2024, looks sure to give his usual good account but it could be that the chief threat comes from Dan Skelton's Unexpected Party, who impressed at Haydock last time.

  1. BARTON SNOW (IRE)
  2. UNEXPECTED PARTY (FR)
  3. ITS ON THE LINE (IRE)
