Verdict
A winner of three point-to-points, THE GALLOPING BEAR made a winning debut over regulation fences with a convincing success at Fontwell. He beat the odds-on Sametegal on that occasion and should go close on that form. Duhallow Tornado won one of these events at Wetherby with Snow Castle well beaten in second while Senor Lombardy placed at Kelso last month and can also figure. Wonderoftheworld debuts for a new yard having won in Ireland back in 2019 but Monbeg Chit Chat hasn’t won anywhere since 2018.
