Cheltenham

If they all line up this would be the biggest field for this race since 2007. The quality is high, too, with seven of the runners having achieved a Racing Post Rating of 155 or higher over fences. Final Demand and Romeo Coolio are huge talents, although neither looks rock-solid coming into this race and solid alternatives abound. Oscars Brother (second choice), Wendigo and Koktail Divin are all contenders, as is Western Fold whose chance would be boosted if the ground stays on the quick side, but the narrow verdict goes to KAID D'AUTHIE, whose win at the Dublin Racing Festival had all the hallmarks of a horse made for this race.
