Verdict
A tricky card is finished off with a bumper race where the betting market will provide plenty of clues to the outcome. Of those who have previously raced Peterson's Cay finished fourth in a weak race at Catterick while American President may be the pick after finishing behind one or two decent sorts in his three races so far. However there are trainers sending debutantes here who have an excellent record in National Hunt Flat races. Ferdy Murphy is represented by a nicely bred colt in Shelu and his bumper horses are in good form at present. Len Lungo also has to be respected in these type of events and it would be no surprise to see Armaguedon taking a hand.
