VERDICT: It is difficult to get away from Stumptown. Gavin Cromwell's charge has to concede weight all round but boasts a really good record at Cheltenham (2-5 including two placed efforts) and he's 1-1 over C&D. He unseated his rider on his Cross Country debut at Punchestown last May but hasn't looked back since, with three straight wins in this sphere making him the one to beat. The eight-year-old won much more easily than the winning margin suggests when he got the better of Mister Coffey here in December and everything points to a big run. Gordon Elliott's horses are always taken seriously in this race and Galvin, a former Grade 1 scorer and Festival winner in 2021, looks the pick of his six runners. Vanillier is another Cromwell horse to watch out for as he beat the reopposing Coko Beach by some 18 lengths at Punchestown last month and also won the Albert Bartlett here in 2021. Busselton and Latenightpass may appeal to those looking for an each-way play in the race.
