Verdict

Harry Cobden can get his time as the official number one to J P McManus off to the perfect start by partnering IMPERIAL BEDE to victory. Full Force Gale was a promising second on his handicap chase debut over C&D at the end of March and is feared most ahead of Diligent Militia, who was a lot better than the result on his first venture into handicap company.

  1. IMPERIAL BEDE (FR)
  2. FULL FORCE GALE (IRE)
  3. DILIGENT MILITIA (FR)
