Verdict

The very lightly raced 6yo HONESTY POLICY is taken to deliver on the considerable promise he showed last year. He lost out only narrowly to impressive Albert Bartlett winner Jasmin De Vaux at Punchestown last April and his reappearance third in the Grade 1 Long Walk at Ascot in December also bodes extremely well for his prospects today. Ma Shantou continued his highly progressive ways when powering clear in the Grade 2 Cleeve Hurdle over C&D in January and he is feared most, ahead of 2024 winner Teahupoo who has a rock-solid profile. Last year's winner Bob Olinger has an excellent record at Cheltenham and could again be firmly involved, even though he's now an 11yo. Long Walk winner Impose Toi probably wasn't at his best on soft ground in the Cleeve Hurdle here last time and is not ruled out.[Ben Hutton]
