SOMEWHAT CLOUDY has taken well to fences this spring and is the most solid option. The chief threat may come from Glentruan who was never involved on his chase debut in autumn 2021 but has plenty of good efforts over hurdles since and could prove a different proposition over fences at the second time of asking.
