Yes - this is the worst race of the Festival apart from the Pertemps and should be one of the first to go. Why have a poor quality 2 1/2 m handicap chase at the Festival when the first half of the Cheltenham season is defined by excellent quality 2 1/2 m handicap chases.

But I guess that's not what you meant

It will always be the Mildmay of Fleet to me.

F Murphys yard has been under water - all his runners so far cannot have been showing top form - could be a deadly mixture come the festival.
