Verdict

Coole Venture has been in good form between the flags recently and is taken to continue winning ways back in hunter chase-company at the main expense of Jemaro, Wandering Light and Pennyahei. The selection is less exposed than most at the age of nine and, if taking to the regulation fences, should be too good for his rivals. Ludlow winner Jemaro disappointed on his next start but looked to be back to his best when winning at point-to-point on his most recent start and has to be respected. Multiple point winners Wandering Light and Pennyahei are others to consider but we are happy to stick with Coole Venture, who gets the vote.
