MADARA (7) couldn't have been anymore impressive when winning the G3 Plate Handicap Chase at Cheltenham last month. Improving quickly and could prove hard to beat if getting a clear round. Winning this last year GENTLEMAN DE MEE (3) is back to defend his crown. Warrants thought as likely making this the main target all season. ILE ATLANTIQUE (4) disappointed at Leopardstown in February. Possibly better ground will help and Paul Townend taking the ride is a major boost to his chances. BILL BAXTER (22) won this on soft ground in 2023. Indicated promise at Kelso last time out and cannot be discounted revisiting fences.
