Verdict

A mouth-watering clash for all there is only the 4 runners, with the narrow vote in favour of Paul Nicholls' BRAVEMANSGAME. He's made a seamless transition to chasing, landing the Kauto Star over Christmas and maintaining his 100% record at Newbury in February. Fresh having skipped Cheltenham, this looks tailor-made for him. Fellow unbeaten chaser L'Homme Presse is a major threat having landed the Gr 1 Brown Advisory at Cheltenham, whilst Ahoy Senor can do better still if improving his jumping.
