Verdict
David Christie and Jamie Codd make a formidable partnership and VAUCELET, a youngster at this game, should prove very difficult to beat. He had Snugsborough Benny five lengths behind when landing a similar race here in November and Nick Lost eight lengths back in second at Portrush last month. Aloneamongmillions looks a major threat as Sam Curling's charge, six from seven between the flags, landed the odds in a Gowran hunter chase last month and his rider's claim is a plus while Everything Now has joined Gordon Elliott after winning three times between the flags.
