      Verdict

      Some grand old campaigners in this, Spring Gale, Ceader Chief and Bitofamixup are all sure to have there supporters but we prefer to take a chance on Belvento. The gelding from the Nick Gifford yard was going well until making a mistake five out last time and if his jumping holds together he will be hard to beat with conditions in his favour. Spring Gale has been in fair form of late and he will be hard to beat if the ground stays on the fast side. Ceader Chief is another that has been in fair form of late but his best form is on heavy ground. Of the remainder Brackenheath is another that could go well but his best efforts of late have come over a slightly shorter trip.
