Big Fella Thanks defied his years when a brilliant third behind Dineur in the Foxhunters’ at Aintree when finishing well ahead of Poole Master. The latter may get his own way out in front this evening, however, and could get a lot closer. FULL TROTTLE is a relatively new kid on the block compared to the aforementioned pair but he’s now two from two under Rules after a comfortable defeat of the useful Creevytennant at Ludlow and he probably wouldn’t need much more to win this. Le Bacardy appears to have recaptured some enthusiasm and could be a threat along with Sivola De Sivola.
