Verdict
This looks a decent bumper with a number of top yards represented. Nicky Henderson’s Chantry House won it in 2019 and he saddles Bold Reaction, a points winner who was just beaten at Doncaster on his debut under Rules. Ernest Gray is having a first run for Alan King having won at Punchestown a year ago but Doncaster winner Everyonesgame could go well under his penalty. TWIN POWER was trying to give the winner 23lb when second at Wincanton. The pair pulled clear of the remainder and Paul Nicholls’ runner can go one better today with Mount Tempest likely to need this.
