2023 winner of this g2 chase pic d'orhy (1) was runner-up last year and will be hoping to maintain his good course record. Started the new season with a 3.5L success tackling the 2m5f G2 1965 Chase during November at Ascot. The one to beat. Stablemate HITMAN (4) showed plenty of ability last October when 1.75L second contesting the 2m4f G2 Old Roan Limited Handicap Chase at Aintree. Big chance. MARTATOR (2) produced decent 10L third in the 2m G2 Desert Orchid Limited Handicap Chase two weeks back here. Possibilities. UNEXPECTED PARTY (3) won the 2m Grand Annual Handicap Chase at last years Cheltenham Festival. Can fill fourth spot.
