    Race Analysis

    The Aintree Foxhunter chase winning GRACCHUS DE BALME (3) kicks off his new campaign here. Will be aiming for the big race at Aintree however is expected to be competitive against this field. Class act. ST CUTHBERT'S CAVE (6) is the second runner for trainer John O'Shea and arrives seeking a fourth win in a row. Maintains form in point to points this season and rates highly. Dan Skelton trained the first Hunter Chase winner for the season at Taunton last week and enters FRERE D'ARMES (2) here who's lost his way though previously won over course and distance. Watch the betting for JAVA POINT (4) who was smart on his day and formerly found success here.
