Gordon Elliott has a 100% record in this and saddles two strong contenders in Cecil Corbett and PRESENTING JULIO. The former has won his last three over this trip, but the selection signalled a return to form at Cheltenham last week and Davy Russell is back on board for the first time since his last success. Freewheelin Dylan is a young improving sort who can play a decent hand again, whilst Bosco Di Alco reserves his best for this track and goes well for today's rider. With blinkers fitted this time he could go well at a decent price.
