Verdict

Plenty are in with a shout but Gordon Elliott comes here mob-handed and his handicap debutant AMERICAN MIKE may have got in lightly so is taken to bag another C&D success with Jack Kennedy in the saddle. Recent Cheltenham scorer Lisnamult Lad heads the list of dangers, although Perceval Legallois, The Short Go, Favori de Champdou and Chemical Energy all need factoring in too.
